OCI process

[SPV]

All, lots of appointments just opened up at Toronto BLS. I just booked an appointment for my husband's surrender. Yesterday, when I checked it was all booked solid but today I see like 20 appointments just for tomorrow. Go and grab it if you want. You can save $70 for purolator pickup and dropoff

Yeah, I saved 70$, but what I have observed is that postal applicatons are being processed faster than walk in applications. My friends who did postal applications got it in 5 weeks...but who did walkin got in 7-8 weeks.

Something similar for me as well. My son's OCI is dispatched, but me and my spouse isn't

Whats your ack date ?

23rd December - how long till BLS delivers the OCI through Purolator if HCI processed on 10th? Right now it says - (Counter Delivery to BLS Centre after OCI stamping)

self attested copies are fine... I dont think you should send any document in original for postal application

Seems Ottawa is way faster than Toronto/Vancouver for OCI processing. Congratulations!
