OCI website still show "no such records found". When can I expect an update on OCI website?

Hi all,

On the surrender certificate application, I see that they ask for "Present Residential Address of the Applicant". Since most of us are outside India, what address are we expected to put down there? There is no option to select a Canadian province in the section.

I guess there are two options for that address; one is outside India, and other is In India. Select the Outside India option and add your Canadian address.

Hi everyone,

Can someone please confirm the exact DD amount to be made For OCI applications? Is it only 345 CAD? and in favour of "Consulate General of India – Toronto"?

Thanks

Also, my surrender certificate application status on the passportindia portal 3 website says "surrender certificate is accepted and now available for issuance". Any idea how long it'll take from here to receive it?

$345 is correct.
Surrender certificate may take another week if you've requested for courier delivery.

I’m so upset, BLS is sending my application back because the signature is not clear. At the time of uploading it tells you to crop the image further to size and confirms that it’s ok. I don’t know why this happened. Have my flight book for December 14 , I don’t think I’ll be able to reapply and get my OCI on time now.

If you can't postpone, try getting an Entry visa, you should have one by Dec 14, just additional cost.

Can anyone please confirm if we can apply Entry or Tourist Visa without surrender certificate?
NO

Or can we apply surrender certificate and Visa together? Can anyone please tell me ?

One can apply surrender certificate and visa together.

Thanks

What documents we have to show when we apply for entry visa if your surrender certificate is in progress?

Hey everyone,

Professional detail of the applicant can be self written? Or has to be a letter from the employer?

Thanks
