Hi everyone,
I am going to apply for oci for my infant who is a US citizen at BLS surrey. We will be opting for a postal application. My questions are:
1. What is the exact draft amount? As per my understanding it is a single draft of $345(cgi fee)+7.4(bls processing fee) in favor of BLS surrey.
2. Do we need to get all documents notarized? I spoke to someone through their helpline and he said just the birth certificate needs to be notarized, rest copies need to be self attested.
3. There is no document for which we need to send in the original. All documents should only be sent as self attested copies. Please let me know if my understanding is correct.
4. What is the average processing time at BLS surrey for postal applications?
TIA for your help!
