From last two weeks my status was showing " passport ready for dispatch after oci stamp" but no ipdate after this so i finally called BLS surrey a d they said yeah it is here and we will dispatch today. So far every process was smooth with BLS except one extra step which is i always have to called them for example after one week i had to called them and only after thT they update my status to receive after that i had call them in the end of process to check when will they dispatch and after those calls they generally started work ahead. I guess typical indians lol

Can someone please advise by when can I expect to receive OCI by Purolator?
Is the acknowledgement received by email?
I sent my postal application on 17-Feb and today it shows under process on BLS tracker
However on OCI Status Enquiry it says no records found
 
Walk in submission.

took my original surrender certificate and charged me $26 courier fee to return back.

anyone else had to submit original document as well ?

No. Date of Acknowledgement is on OCI website. It takes about 3 weeks to appear on OCI website with Date of Acknowledgement and will show "under Process. hopefully you will find this updated info on OCI website by end of next week

Once status changes on OCI website to Printed / dispatched date, approximately it takes another week. Which office you applied at?
