Entry Visa Update:

Applied : 26th Oct at BLS Surrey (4 hours in lineup)
Processed : 27 Oct by evening.
Status on website : Your visa is Processed and Printed.
BLS Status: In Transit from Consulate General to BLS Centre

Should get it by tomorrow.

Evisa and OCI still in progress

Did you receive it or it was a glitch on the site? Please update. I don't want to submit my original passport and receive OCI but stuck with my Passport at BLS.

I am going on Monday to Surrey BLS, line up in cold weather. Anyone see me there say hello , will probably be covered in tons of fleece, reading a book- "explanation of Japji Sahib"

What time? I am also planning to go there on Monday.

That's too early as I have to start from Langley...maybe I will reach 6.30 -7. Are you suspecting a huge queue? Please hold one spot for me as well

@ https://suvidha.hciottawa.gov.in/user/faqs/visa
the timeline for visa is "2-3 days of receipt of application from BLS".
Is this timeline for just an Emergency(?) visa or all visa types?

I saw that too but can’t say anything. Just waiting for replies of whosoever applied on 26th, if the updates they shared were not a glitch and they actually received the passport or tracking number atleast

@harneetk Are you applying for entry visa -- considering your OCI timeline is very close to your flight?
