OCI process

[delray55]

I got them done last year (2021) and before expiry (so they were valid).
As I hinted at earlier, I think they have their own way to selecting whether to go for physical police verification or not.

Yes. Thanks
I link i posted in prior post also provides some details on when there will be no No PV,Pre PV and Post PV.

Hi Guys,
For OCI online application, what are the documents we should upload for a single applicant? Canadian and Indian Passport right? Any other document? Should we upload surrender certificate also?

Hello there, My frnd is Canadian PR holder and waiting for citizenship. His Indian passport has expired. Due to citizenship processing delays he decided to get it renewed and plan a trip to India. Can anyone let us know as PR holder address will canadian, will there be any physical police verification at Indian address?? We appreciate your quick response.
Also if passport renewal done in tatkal process how much time it takes these days. Will there be police enquiry?? If so when as the passport will be handed soon.

1-Canadian address and address proof
2-Indian address ,telephone number and police station name
3-tat-call- YES most of the time 7 to 10 days PV perform latter most of the time consulate do not take guaranty to timely deliver
4-MAIN PROBLEM IS IF PR EXPIRE YOU NOT ABLE TO DEPOSIT YOUR APPLICATION BLS ASKING YOUR STATUS IN CANADA YOU NOT A CANADIAN CITIZEN OR CONSULATE APPROVAL LATTER

Does anyone know approximately how long it is taking now for OCI reaching CA consulate from ND to getting delivered on hand by Purolator?

 

[BVRM]

So your status status says Passport ready for collection? I thought that was only for in-person pickup. For Purolator, status should say Passport ready for dispatch no? Or it does not make sense between the 2 different BLS statuses.

Our previous OCI's status also reads same despite courier delivery. Do not take literal meaning.

As per posts it can take anywhere b/w 3/4 days to 8 days calendar days.
Delhi to Canada Consulate is same day, followed by Stamping at Consulate, delivery to BLS, then delivery to applicant ..taking couple of days.
