I saw this checklist. I will go to BLS and clarify. May be Its not needed to be sent.
One question:
When we apply for OCI( either postal or In person) We will send Original Canadian PP and it will be with them till the OCI is approved and returned.
Its taking like months now a days. And we will be without passport for that long?
You can directly go to Passport office after oath. Provided you fill app and get guarantor sign etc.
Sometime back I went to service Canada for some renewal. They said our systems are down plz come back later.
The possibility of something like that happening is more likely than the passport...
I went for In Person on Oct 19. The agent said I can Pick up my passport on Nov 5.
I told her I need it before Oct-27 and I have a tickets for the travel date.
She said you have to apply for Express and It will be 50$ more and pick up date changed to something early.
So if you go for In-person...
This is what happened to me as well.
Got a reply (Automatic)s aying that, "If you sent your Signed Oath form, Consider its delivered."
Next day status moved to Complete and Cert was mailed(Postal Date show day status changed)
this is for SCR office.
In the checklist it requires a Photo Id of the applicant for address.
What document to provide for minor.
Health Card has no photo.
No other Id available.
Any info is much appreciated.
