same portal, one new tab will be added for eoci

Congratulations! It will be the same portal. You'll now see one extra tab called "e-oci".

Yeah, just downloaded it earlier.

I had actually never even seen/attempted to log in to the oci portal before today, since BLS did all that for me when i applied.

Turns out my email id was already registered. Just needed to do the forgot password thing, so i could log in.

Hello,

I am applying for my OCI though it is asking for me to declare that I have cancelled my voter ID in India, I tried filling out form 7 with the last EPIC number i have on my voter ID but it doesnt yield any result does it mean my voter id was deleted in the last SIR? Can i go ahead and sign the undertaking that i have no voter ID?

they don't care about the proof. If you are confident that MHA will never find your voter id, if searched, then go ahead.

Maybe your EPIC number was changed. You can do an electoral roll search. I didn't remember my EPIC no., so I just used the search to find the latest number and download PDF of voter ID. Then used that to cancel it
