Can anyone confirm if we can apply for surrender certificate and OCI together at Brampton location. What exactly do we need to provide in professional details. How would self employed or homemaker provide this?
TIA

OCI and surrender cert applications are no longer accepted together. The checklist for OCI was updated in late Nov 2021 to include Surrender Cert. Hence, you need to wait for the Surrender Cert before you can apply for OCI.

Anybody notice that the OCI Application form on printing at 100% does not print the bar code at the bottom of Page1?

If you don't mind can you share when u applied for surrender certificate and when you received it. Mine i applied Dec 31st and still waiting, it's 10 days in surrender certificate printed stated, BLS tracking always says processing at consulate, i logged a couple of tickets with BLS they just close it stating the same as still being processed at consulate.
