OCI process

[eas2lv]

Checked just now.

No updates.

Making me worry as I am the only one left from 11 Oct batch.

Very likely you will get Ack tomorrow -- it happens.

We first did the online form on 24th September and got the automate email from OCI saying :

Thank you for completing Part-B of OCI- Application on 25/Sep/2023 03:20 IST .

We then walked in to Edmonton's BLS office on Sep 25 and submitted the hard copies to BLS who do the final checks and did all the upload. But there has been no email since then. So I am not sure what the acknowledgement everyone here has been talking about. When I I looked up BLS tracking website (https://www.blsindia-canada.com/ottawa-jurisdiction/track-application.php) it says this :

Application Status

Processing at Consulate General

Am I supposed to be getting anything else between this communication and last step ?

We have a travel coming up early December and any response will be greatly appreciated , please and thank you !

What is the Acknowledgement date on that OCI status site? Then compare your dates with this tracker that shows others timelines for Vancouver jurisdiction: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JhK4zYSgV9pRI6p_VKWIw-zPX9q5BCHvbmFbTCeIjNg/edit#gid=0
That will give you an idea.

PROBABLY GIVE 30 Days and see if its processed because I believe its taking 30 days to get processed after acknowledgment in Vancouver

What is your status showing today on tracker?

It is showing processing at consulate general, but when I checked on Indian Visa https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/StatusEnquiry, it showed Processed and Printed, which means I should have the passport soon. So overall processing is pretty fast - about 2 working days to process

Thank you for pointing me to that tracker sheet.. Is there any way I can add myself there in that tracker or only the author has the permission to update tracker ?

 

[Pradeep Verma]

Any updates on the Entry visa? How long does it take to process it? If anyone can state the process/workflow would be great.

I applied for Entry visa on October 27 - Walk In, it showed processing at Consulate general on October 30, and today when I checked on Visa site, it showed processed and printed, which means the actual processing is just about 2 days once it reaches consulate, I should have the passport with me hopefully by Friday or Monday
