Can you please add me in spreadsheet as I did postal application on October 3rd, Bls Brampton received it on October 5th. Then status changed to processing at consulate general on October 12th and application date changed to October 12th also
@eas2lv is tracking that in a google sheet. I am tracking small no of Ottawa applicants.

I applied OCI walkin at BLS Brampton on Sept 25, still OCI site shows no record found. Does this mean that application might be rejected?

No ack yet status on bls says processing at consulate general since October 12 but nothing yet at oci tracker.. My tickets are for December 7
If the current trend continues, you are likely to get OCI in hand by Nov 23. You will get a better idea after Acknowledgement. Also keep an eye on the tracker to gauge change in processing times.

Too early to panic.. Some people do get their Ack delayed by a few days compared to others for no apparent reason.

I have appt with BLS North York tomorrow at 10 am. Going to cancel it. If anyone with an urgent need wants to co-ordinate the time to grab it when the slot opens up (hope it does on cancellation), please PM me. Its a Visa appt but afaik, BLS doesn't care about the type of appt.

In your place I would definitely contact the consulate if Ack doesn't happen this week. No harm in trying.
