Is your spouse name on your passport?

no its not, so should I have left this blank?

In such cases you need to add marriage certificate as your spouse name gets printed on OCI card.

My OCI was processed on Feb 15 and from last 7 days the status is still showing “ready to dispatch”. I tried contacting BLS customer service but no luck. Any suggestions?

mine was processed on Feb 13 and dispatched by BLS on 20th, so give it a day or two. Try calling BLS at their different numbers - 7786524855 or 2894981320 or 6134169877

Can you pls tell me what your DOA on oci website is ?

Yes. It's better if you get it from employer.

What if someone is not working full time so cannot get the letter then write all details manually or type all details yourself and sign it? Anybody got it successfully using that? And any format anybody used?

Makes sense. Thank you!

Has anyone been able to submit application, successfully with or without extra charges, for family member A with appointment on name of family member B?

 

[desmat]

In OCI application, what to fill in section
where it ask if already applied oci for any family member, if you applied for family members already but it's pending with consulate.
Only 2 options there- Grant and Not granted.
If those are not processed yet so granted cannot be option obviously.
But even Not Granted option does not make sense and it sounds like choosing rejected or denied.

Any thoughts?

My best friend got divorced recently . She is Indian by birth but her husband stays in India. She has her OCI card but her husband name is printed on it.

how can she remove it now given his name is printed on it?
