Indian passport surrender

Hello, Our Surrender application shows "Ready for dispatch" in BLS site. When called BLS call centre they told you can come pick it up whenever you want. Ours is a Walk-in submission. We were waiting for "Ready for Collection" status. The call centre person told that sometimes it shows like that and sometimes when it says Ready to dispatch that also means you can collect it. He says our application reached the site by May 1st. Have you seen anyone experience the same by any chance. thankyou.
You are right there are two Passport Seva sites:
1. this one is for Indians to use in India - https://www.passportindia.gov.in/AppOnlineProject/welcomeLink#
2. this one is for NRIs to use abroad - https://portal3.passportindia.gov.in/Online/welcomeLink?request_locale=en
Sometimes this can be confusing.
@abbas.pasha @forw.jane can we archive these links somewhere?
Did you pay for courier ? If no, you can go and collect it. The status on BLS site is opposite of what's expected in many cases.
Max I can bookmark it. Archive I think admin of this site would have access to. I don't.
hello all, I submitted my surrender application in May 4th for me and my son. My son’s is already dispatched but mine say in review on passport portal. Is this expected. It frustrates me as to why they can’t process both together.
The application status on BLS tracker changed to: In Transit from Consulate General to BLS Centre
This is for my passport cancellation certificate, any idea how much time it takes from here to receive the courier ?
My OCI walk-in appointment is on 27th May.
Every application is processed individually. There is no family application concept for surrender and OCI but mostly they follow similar timelines.
hi,
can someone please share the processing messages that will be displayed in the passport surrender page ?
I couldn't find it anywhere, Thanks.

I feel you will get it by next week. Dunno why they take so much time when others do it in 2-3 weeks.
Hi All, have quick question.
Me and my spouse are submitting Indian surrender application tomorrow at Brampton location.
In form, where we need to fill details of parents name and spousal name as per indian passport, they have also box where we need to add Nationality of spouse. so will this be "Canadian" or "Indian"? I am little confused as details should go as per indian passport or updated info??
