my OCI was dispatched on 16May, received on 31May; someone else received it on 30May.
i suggest you wait till 10May, and if you see no movement, then apply for an e-visa.
Hi
your second OCI for Adult Dispatched at May 29, 2024. In my minor case it was May 30, 2024. If you get any updates in this week on BLS website please update on that forum, that would be really appreciated. I want to book an flights but I am literally waiting for OCI card.

Thank you

BLS website gets updated first. Then same day or next day Purolator website gets updated
Hi, as per your message your Dispatched date was May 21, 2024. Are you remember exact date when your BLS status was updated after dispatched date? I am planning to booked ticket. If you share that timeline that would help me a lot.

Thank you

Yes should be the answer
Thank you. My child's Canadian passport application had one form and 2 page printout.
The amount of documents and printout s we have to take for OCI is just ridiculous.
I guess with all the scams/frauds we Indians do, this is required. But still feel like so much unnecessary work.

My current status for oci application in BLS website stating “(Counter Delivery to BLS Centre after OCI stamping)”

I don’t see any Purolator tracking #.

Is it the next day when the tracking details will be updated in BLS website ?

Yes typically next day. You will see the Purolator tracking number in the comments on the BLS site when the status on the BLS site changes to Passport ready For Collection after OCI stamping.
At that time you will also be able to track the shipment on the Purolator site by entering the CAN.... File reference number as PIN/Reference on the Purolator site.
