OCI process

[Darsh007]

Done with BLS!!!!!! ... All of us have our OCI cards now ​

OCI for Minor:

• Submission to Acknowledged
  July 26, 2025 → August 14, 2025 = 19 days
• Acknowledged to Granted
  August 14, 2025 → September 3, 2025 = 20 days
• Granted to Delivered
  September 3, 2025 → September 18, 2025 = 15 days
• Submission → Delivered (total)
  July 26, 2025 → September 18, 2025 = 54 days or 7 weeks and 5 days

Where and how can I see all these additional details?

Official OCI and BLS only shows "Under Processing" all the time, Thanks in advance!

Hey! I just did my own calculations on the days.. but the OCI portal only shows 3 updates.. Under Process, Granted and when the OCI leaves Printing cell. Post that, BLS tracking would update at some point with Received from Consulate and Ready of collection mostly on the same day. Timelines are bit off this year v/s last year when it was more predictable. In either case. If there is no movement for over a month, you should reach out to the CGI in Toronto using the webform on the website.
