Did you email them for update or it got updatedit as it is?

I emailed them but I don't even think that would have made any difference as I received an update very soon after. So, probably just a major coincidence I believe. As per all past updates it has taken anywhere between 70-75 days to process after the date of acknowledgement. Mine was processed on the 75th day.

@anisha11 and @dopelemon I did not email but my status changed today. Hoping for BLS Vancouver to receive the application soon, so they can start the courier process.
It took 70 days for my application to be processed at Vancouver from the date of submission.

Anyone from Ottawa waiting to get the OCI booklet after it has been dispatched from MEA (OCI) New Delhi? Mine was dispatched on Oct 14, 2024 but there has been no change in the status on the BLS Ottawa site and no received date on the OCI site.
Any idea how long it takes for the Ottawa BLS to receive from Delhi?

I believe it takes about 7-10 days to receive in Ottawa based on earlier posts. Can I ask you what is your acknowledgement date? Mine was 11 OCT 2024. Thanks

Hi Everyone. For my minor's OCI application, I had a unique situation where I had only eCOPR but was still waiting for the physical PR card. Vancouver BLS has accepted the application with a declaration of the same. However, they are not sure if it would work out. Has anyone been in the same boat or known something like it? How did it work out for you?

Hopefully I’ll get soon too. I’m planning to travel next month but want to confirm my oci first before booking a flight ticket.
