I believe they didn’t ask me its by mail by default unless we specifically tell them we want to pick up.
Thanks for the response

They ask you to pay for courier. Did you pay?

What does it mean by (Passport ready For Dispatch after OCI stamping) - Do we have to take our original Canadian Passport to BLS for stamping?

It means tumhari OCI ke lottery lag gayee hain

Hello folks, I'm new to this forum so please pardon if I'm not following any etiquette. Spouse and I applied (Postal) for OCI at the Brampton location. The application date on the BLS tracker is shown as 2nd Oct and status 'Processing at consulate general'. But the GoI OCI status inquiry portal shows 'No such record found' for both of us. Is this normal? When can/should we expect this to change?
Our flight tickets have already been booked for the first week of Dec; starting to get a bit antsy now. Appreciate your guidance.

It will take about 20+ days to get acknowledgment on the OCI website from the date you submit to BLS
From acknowledgment it takes another month to get OCI in hand

Its taking about two weeks from application date for Acknowledgement at which point it will show up in the OCI status site. You can see others timeline in the tracker linked below. Applications from around Oct 2 are just getting acknowledged -- you may see an update on yours in a couple of days.

Seems BLS employee selected wrong option. Anyone experienced or in the same boat as me?

Hello, i got the same message today Counter Delivery to BLS after OCI Stamping not sure what it means. I see you got the same message. Did you get your OCI? Any update on your end. I‘m freaking out. I applied for OCI on Oct 11th so it can’t be this fast.
