[canadalove85]

For all categories

As of this post, I see bunch of appointments available for today/tomorrow under passport category for Toronto BLS. Few available under visa/OCI for today.

Based on earlier posts here in this thread, the appointment type doesn't matter and you can submit OCI using passport appointment type.

Are you sure about the appointment type? I was able to get an appointment under passport category but I have to submit an OCI application

No

Someone in the forum mentioned that appointment type does not matter. Can anyone validate based on personal experience??

mmm! My Son's OCI card has mis-spelled last name for one of the parents at last page. Does anyone knows what is the process/procedure to get that corrected?. I think that is mistake on our side while filling up the forms.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you

Appointments are currently available for BLS Brampton Under Passport & Visa category. They have introduced a new process of sending OTP on mobile number & it seems only 2 appointments are possible for each mobile number.

can we cancel the courier service booked at BLS and get refund? I did call BLS customer service and booked the courier pick up and drop off. I cancelled the pick up by calling Purolator.

I have uploaded India Passport, Canada Passport and Marriage certificate for OCI application. I am going to provide copies of the rest of the document in person. Is that okay?

I am still a Canadian PR card holder but I have a son who was born here. I was looking to apply for PIO for him but looks like there's no option for PIO anymore. Does anyone if I can get OCI for him? Or there's no option for kids who are born here in Canada?

If parents are Indian, you will get OCI for kid. Thanks
