OCI process

Quick question, i am not able to get apt in brampton or toronto but now montreal is available can i apply my oci there ??
You have to apply in the Jurisdiction under which your postal code falls. Try walk-in or postal application -- the latter will cause a delay of about a week for transit and processing at BLS, but avoids the uncertainty of long lineups and being turned away at walk-in on busy days.
Usually it should take 2-3 to be delivered once BLS receives it from the consulate., if that is you have paid for the courier
I haven't paid for the courier.. i opted for the pickup service at bls. is there any timeline for that?
I did for my daughter's OCI application
Indian Passport - PoB - New Delhi
Canadian Passport - PoB - Delhi
This was draft was prepared by the notary, we reviewed it and notary then signed and certified it

Collection: 3:00 pm to 4:30pm, but plz go a little earlier as its first come first served and there might just quite a few people in for collection
In our case we submitted our applications and picked the OCI cards from Brampton. So we reached BLS by around 1:45/2:00 pm to find 5-10 people ahead of us. This was in Feb 2023.
In Brampton they allow pick only between Mon-Fri, so for Vancouver crosscheck with BLS if they will allow collections on Sat
