Question regarding applying for OCI while being in India.
I am expecting the citizenship oath invite any time soon. My plan is to take the oath in Canada and travel to India immediately after the oath, since I am employed in India. I will be using Indian passport for this travel. I understand this is legally allowed, since at the time of the travel I am not a Canadian passport holder yet.
My cousin will forward the citizenship certificate from Canadian address to my Indian address. Once it reaches India, I am planning to apply for Canadian passport at the Canadian consulate in India and thereafter surrender Indian passport and apply for OCI status, while being in India.
Has any one recently applied for Canadian passport and OCI while being in India? Could you share any issues faced during the process?
