On the OCI website does it provide dates against printed and dispatched etc ?

Folks who have lost their surrender certificate - Is attaching copy of indian passport with stamp stating ‘Cancelled on acquiring Foreign Citizenship’ good enough for a new OCI application?

Has anyone applied for the entry visa in Toronto recently? As there are no available time slots on the BLS website, the only option available is to queue up. My questions are:

1. How much time does it take for the queuing up process
2. Are OCI applicants and entry visa applicants in the same queue?

Thank you!!
