Do you need to get your Canadian passport before surrendering your Indian passport? The website of the Indian consulate in Toronto says 'Copy of Canadian passport, if held'. but the checklist on the same website asks for the original Canadian passport. I am confused. Can someone help?
Yes Canadian passport is required they have not updated the checklist.
In the past if you did not have Canadian passport they would ask you to provide the letter mentioning that you do not have the Canadian passport or are in the process of getting one

Not sure if this will help, but you can contact CGI Toronto via Sampark - https://www.cgitoronto.gov.in/sampark/ Try raising a query under FAQ/Raise a query> SC category (look for the link at the bottom of the page) and give them the details of your app.

Went to BLS Brampton to surrender my passport today. This was my experience.
Had an appointment at 12 pm. I wasn’t sure whether to go to building #40 or #60. Went to #40 first. Thought I had to line up but the line was for walk-ins. Told the security guard I had an appointment and he let me in but then realized and told me I had to go to #60 for surrenders. It was already a few mins past my appointment time so ran over to #60. The security guard there checked my appointment confirmation, gave me a token and sent me to 4th floor. There was a small queue inside the BLS office. Spoke to a couple of people in front and behind me and they said they’d waited in the walk-in line for ~2 hours. The inside line moved pretty quick and the agent at the counter was alright. My own photo (from Shoppers, stamped, dated) that I pasted on the application form was accepted. I had provided an additional photo but the agent returned it to me. All the originals were checked and returned. Couldn’t escape the courier service but I couldn’t pick up anyway so it was ok. Was out of there by 12.25.
Bhai iska matlab jai hain ke.... CGI kaa kaam khatam hua
You and @sumitbajaj07 Check the status from now on BLS website, which should be updating in a few days, ab Lottery kabbhi nikal sakti hain
@2017CanadaHo! I tried checking but it's pointing to some dummy status lol which is common for all of my 3 applications. So technically I'm not able to track it.
@abbas.pasha , hahaha thanks for your all help. Abhi aur disturb karenge OCI ke time pe
