Applied OCI - walk0in on 15th June, and yesterday got the status updated on BLS website to 'Counter Delivery to BLS Centre after OCI stamping '
What would be the next status update (I have not opted the courier) ?
When to expect it to be ready for pickup from BLS Brampton ?

In 2-4 days it should move to Ready for collection. That's when you can go and pick it up.

In the background check, does an officer personally go and verify at the indian relative's address mentioned in the oci application form?

To give an estimate of timeline to applicants at Ottawa center, it is indeed ~7 weeks now for the processing. My acknowledge date was June 10th, processed on July 26th. Now waiting for dispatch from MEA Delhi, and next steps. Not sure how long the remaining part takes. I can update once I receive them. This forum is indeed very helpful. Thank you.

Submitted OCI today for myself and spouse at Brampton location. Went through appointment and was in and out in 20 mins.
It was pretty smooth. They didnt even ask for originals, just verified photocopies against application form and asked to submit courier charges but we opted for Pick up instead.
Will keep updating timeline for tracking purpose.
Thankful for this forum to provide all guidance.
