Thank you!
Given that my application granted date is June 13, I will probably see the status change to Dispatch on Monday.

When did you submitted at BLS?

Originally a postal but we decided to go to BLS Toronto when it was returned due to an error.

Thank you but it is showing an error probably since it is not dispatched yet. I will keep checking.

You can combine with other docs and make PDF and then upload it.

Status is now showing "Passport ready For Collection after OCI stamping" with a tracking number under comments.
Anyone know if Purolator delivers on Saturday?

Ok. Any guidance on what to combine with what?

I combined all Indian docs in one PDF and Canadian docs in one PDF. And then uploaded it.

If you have someone in India, I would recommend deletion of both Ration Card & voter Id through them. For Ration Card all you need is a signed application to delete your name along the original ration card. They would return the ration card with your name deleted in the next 10-15 days.

For Voter ID- visit a Voter office in your hometown - its much simpler to submit a physical Form 7. My online Form 7 was rejected 3 times - so I asked my brother to submit a physical one - after which it took about 14 days for actual deletion.

Thanks
