Update: OCI is issued

BLS Updates >

6-JUN-2026 : underprocess
8-JUN-2026 : Processing at Consulate Consulate


OCI Portal Updates >

6-JUN-2026 : UNDER-PROCESS [The application is not acknowledged at the Mission/ FRRO yet]
22-JUN-2026 : UNDER-PROCESS, Acknowledged
20-JUL-2026 : GRANTED [BUT GRANTED DATE SHOWS 21-JULY-2026]

I can also see partially masked OCI number.

Along with this, I see 3 more updates on OCI portal which tells me I will NOT receive physical OCI card:

OCI card dispatched from printing cell on 21/JUL/2026
OCI card received at Mission/FRRO on 21/JUL/2026
OCI card delivered to applicant on 21/JUL/2026

I have already clicked on "generate e-oci" and waiting for my pdf.

I don't expect BLS status to update. But if I magically get physical OCI card, I'll let you guys know.

This likely confirms per this forum that OCI cards issued post July 8 will be solely e-oci cards and physical booklets will no longer be issued.

BLS better refund my courier money LOL. By the way, there was a link to accept fti-ttp terms and conditions on oci portal which said my oci biometric will be re-used for e-gates fti-ttp registration. Looks like e-oci to fti-ttp e-gates transition will be seamless and doesn’t require any separate registration.

I am in a similar boat. OCI has been granted but has not been received at the Mission yet.

Same question - will we receive the booklet?
Update: i received my booklet yesterday afternoon.
Had applied at BLS Brampton on May 20th,
it changed to granted July 2,
OCI card dispatched from printing cell July 7,
OCI booklet received on July 20th.

I checked on OCI website and today it updated and now has : OCI card received at Mission/FRRO on July 21
