Hi All, We submitted OCI applications(for myself, my wife and kid) on August 26th in Brampton BLS center(Walk in application).

On BLS website it says application is in progress at Consulate General. On OCI website we still see no record found.

Does it take longer than 3 weeks to acknowledge our application on OCI status website. Did anyone apply on same date at Brampton saw the acknowledgement. Thanks.

We booked our tickets to India on November 15th. Based on what we saw here. Hopefully we get our OCI cards by then

Is there any time limit by them to pick it up? For how many days can we delay pickup?

Hi Experts ,
Quick help . Planning to submit my OCI application to BLS Brampton next week . The supporting documents that we upload in the OCI website , should I scan and upload the self attested copies ? or Just upload normal copies and submit the self attested copies physically ? It was not very clear in the instructions .

I too applied on 2nd September the OCI Status website still shows "No Record Found". In the earlier posts from this forum, I see acknowledgement took 2 weeks or less

Hi All

For Surrender certificate, should the appointment be booked under passport - 40 Gillingham Drive or is it 60 Gillingham Drive?

Thanks . Also what to enter in the field 'Previous Passport Number' in the Application - Part A . Should I leave it blank as it is optional or enter my Cancelled Indian passport number ?
