OCI process

[forw.jane]

I recently submitted OCI Application via Walk-in at BLS Mississauga.
current status is showing as : Processing at Consulate General
reeceived TEXT as: "Your application is under revisioning at consulate"
None of these matches above status which are showing as table format.

does anyone know what is the procedure? like what is the shared responsibility of Toronto and India? does India only print the OCI booklet or the entire process is executing from India? Or like Once Toronto Jurisdiction provide green signal and generate OCI number then India just to print the booklet to reduce cost and use specific paper type?

The table format comes in this - https://ociservices.gov.in/statusEnqury

Thanks, I think this is different than BLS application status. I got the status from BLS status tracker and above tracker doesn't provide anything yet to me. I hope I need to use Canada Passport Number as Input.

This would take 2 weeks to populate.

Do we need to upload NOC for Kids ? If yes which category ?

Hello
Does anyone know how is the lineup for OCI pickup at the BLS Mississauga location ? On the receipt if says collection from 3:30 to 4:30 pm but not sure if it's better to be there like at 1 pm to be able to make it.
Since it's freezing outside and I have to pickup the OCI for my child, I was wondering if there is a huge lineup for pickup.
I should have chosen the courier delivery method (there is no option to request the courier delivery after applying in person)

Pickup is generally not crowded nor would there be a big queue as they force everyone for courier. Also the time is 3 pm - 4.30 pm. Not sure why you receipt saying 3.30 pm. Going 15 mins before is enough.

Not sure what went wrong with you. We took PL for 3 of us as family. It was very nice and all went fine with application submission part. Even I saw a family who book PL and then found few documents were missing so Agents asked them to leave and provide all the information about those documents then told to re-book for another PL and payment is only when they submit the full and final application.

Glad to hear things worked out smoothly for you, but unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience. Despite booking a premium appointment and following their process, I was still misinformed about the required documents, which caused unnecessary delays and frustration. Additionally, the communication system (calling and submitting tickets) was unhelpful, and the staff's behavior during the process only added to the problem. It’s great if things go right the first time, but when they don’t, proper customer service and clear guidance are critical—which was severely lacking in my case."

Very urgent : I have scheduled pickup tomorrow.

For the Place of birth I have entered same as per Canadian Passport match it is : "City IND" but after submission of online form It shows Birth Place : "City IND, State, India".
Please comment on this based on the past approved experience whether this is ok or what should I do ?

Just enter the Birth place 'city', don't enter 'IND'.

Thanks

Thanks for your response, will try. And can you confirm in the address in form 7, we write the Indian address where the voter id is registered? or present Canadian address?
To answer your question about ration card- my family ration card has been unused for more than 25 years now and expired - so not doing anything for cancelling.

Hey, did it work for you? I have my name attached with my dad's ration card and i don't have my personal ration card. We haven't used that in the last many year. Do i still need to do anything? Like ask my dad to remove me from the ration card?
Thanks
