OCI process

[Gibacho]

My application status on BLS site is showing as "Processing at Consulate General"
It has been 4 working days (or more).
OCI site is still not showing any status - when usign the passport number and DOB - it shows no application received.

Hi, can anyone please explain what exactly goes into an "employment letter" in the OCI process? Can anyone share a sample?

The second question is -this declaration of voter id and ration card surrender, do we upload this along with the other documents in the online portal? or we sign it and submit in person or post along with other docs when we are submitting our file? I plan on going in person at BLS Center.

Can someone please help answer this? :'(

The letter should have a company letter head logo or something,

your name, your designation and how long you are working in the company should mentioned on the letter

This type of letter you can get it from the HR.

and about the declaration, there is no specific portal to upload it, so you can upload under relationship certificate.

note: mention private service on the occupation section

Hi margee!
Okay, im provinding the link below, you can follow the procedure, seriously it was so easy

https://blsindia-canada.ca/pickup-instructions

First you need to choose pickup and dropoff as the price is 90$

if youre choosing only pickup the price is 60$

better you opt for pickup and dropoff. After entering the address and choosing the pickup time, you go to the checkout page, then you pay the amount.

you will get an automated message stating youre label will be provided within 30-60 minutes, but it wont take that much time, you get it in 15min to your email id along with the
Pickup timings.

i hope the message guided you well, please revert if you had anyother questions

Thank you so much for your guidance. Its easy and smooth and my pickup is also done. Again, thanks for your support

Hi margee,

Does the Purolator guy provide with the envelope? And at what time the Purolator personnel come, is there is any option to provide the pickup time?

I just booked a pickup and drop-off, selecting a time between 10 and 2. After that, I received an email from BLS India with my label. I printed out the label, and then the Purolator guy came in approx 1:00pm with an envelope, so I just dropped my documents inside the envelope.

Does OCI services work on weekends too or should I expect my changes now next week only. technically it's Friday here tomorrow but should be Saturday in India

Saturday is working here in Vancouver. Not sure how they consider the Indian working days.
