This for sure is your Purolator tracking # they must have created the shipping Label to hand over to Purolator today afternoon or evening. Mine is Missisauga BLS which one is yours?

Document received at Toronto: August 13, 2024

As far as my OCI application goes

Postal Application
BLS Toronto
Application submitted to BLS : July 25, 2024
Date of Acknowledgement : July 31, 2024

Question: Wife's visible identification is incorrect on OCI. I accidently wrote Birthmark on Right Hand Wrist instead of Left Hand wrist. Should i get the detail corrected? i called BLS and they said no need to update but i am not sure if this will cause issue at the time of travel. Also my home address in going to change in 3 months. Again BLS agent said no need to update address but i wanted to knwo what does the group think ?

Thanks

Nope. You are in the clear when you have your date of acknowledgement from the OCI portal - https://ociservices.gov.in/

The BLS status means nothing. They had my signature missing in the form and the status was processing at consulate. Once you have the acknowledgement date you can be sure that your forms and docs are all clear and accepted.

Hi all! I’m just starting my OCI process. I have two questions

1) do we actually need to submit a letter from employer? It will be a huge pain to get it for me. Is a self declaration letter good enough?

2) do we need to include an original Canadian passport or just a photocopy will do?

Thank you

1) I doubt it works. In my case letter just had my designation and the start date, so they asked me to give a self declaration letter explaining what I do in my job.
2) Photocopy is enough
