I don't think soYou think I would have asked that question if Toronto was mentioned initially?
Do you know when the application was received in BLS and when they processed it for passing on to the consulate? Sometimes postal applications stall a few days at BLS and that could explain your delayed acknowledgement.
Others who got acknowledged same time as your have recently reached the "PROCESSED" stage. Expect to see some movement soon. Good luck.
Hi guys need help.
1. I succesfully uploaded my 5 month baby's fingerprint on the application form. But what about the checklist at the "Details to be filled by the applicant". What to do here? Do I need to fill it up, scan it, paste my baby's fingerprint, print it again and then mail? That sounds like a lot of work. How to do this? Can parents sign this area instead of baby?
2. My baby is Canadian born. So the "Previous nationality of applicant" would be NA right? Asking because one of the BLS guides mentioned you need to mention India. Please help.

Maybe the BLS guide says it, as kid is eligible for Indian citizenship even though it got Canadian citizenship by birth.
A bit of technicality is involved. Also once kid turns 18, they can decide to keep one of it, so they have the privilege of dual citizenship till then.
According to me no harm going with the BLS guide. Others please help @Boviesam with this question as many in this forum would have done OCI application for a kid born in Canada.
Since most people's photos get rejected by BLS, I recommended my wife to get her photo clicked in the BLS office. But how does that work when submitting the online application? Given that it cannot be printed without uploading a photo, and it has to be the same one that I physically submit. Has anyone clicked the picture in BLS, and how did you manage the online application?
Done. OCI Tracker - Toronto
Please post here when BLS status changes to Processing with Consulate as this is a postal application. Thanks.
Document printing status- processed- 4th oct

3 applications. No update since 6th oct. How long will they hold at BLS. It usually takes 1 day after dispatch status. But I don’t see any dispatch status. Our flight is booked for 16th oct.
