Hi,

Were you able to surrender your passport and get the OCI.
Please share your experience as I am also planning to get the same.

Thanks in advance

I am in process of doing the same thing. BLS website is very poorly maintained with contradictory information on more than a couple of pages.
Has anyone got a checklist / correct information on this?

Hi Friends ,
I too have a similar questions:

1)
Can I apply for passport surrender and OCI together in a single visit to Brampton BLS.....OR.... Do I have to wait to recieve surrender certificate and then apply for OCI ?

IF YES then how does it work....asking this because BLS Brampton has two different buildings (in the same plaza) for Surrender and OCI.

2)
Do they take walk-ins for both processes?

3) I need to leave for India by Oct 1st week....do I stand I chance if I apply by 1 Sep 2022.

Regards
JSPCAN
