If you check previous messages processing touched till 7th Nov. Next week you should also see processed message.
I have been checking this thread from more than a month now and people are getting their oci's processed with later ack dates than us.
But keeping fingers crossed.

When did you send it or when was it delivered to bls?
it was delivered to bls on Jan 8 and they acknowledged that it’s 4-6 business days it goes to consulate for processing , so rest applications were under process on Jan 13 and one last now shows as under processing Jan 18

The online system seems to be broken and no longer works. You should call BLS and they will help you with it.

I am in the same boat as you. My Ack date is Nov.08 & Nov.09 for our applications. If I don’t recieve anything by Sunday then I’m applying for e-Visa.

Hi everyone, My OCI has been dispatched from New Delhi ( MEA) on 11th Jan however has still not reached Toronto.
Does it take this long? I believe the trend was around 2-3 business days but has been more than that, any one else in the same situation.

How come Vancouver guy got it recieved next day itself after dispatch from New Delhi?

Are you sure it's really sent from Delhi.. I think it's just consulate processing it
I already told this before. Nothing physically comes from New Delhi. It's just internal process i.e. confirmation, validation etc from India.
