I had applied for my wife's and daughter's passport renewal together. We got my wife's passport last week but daughter's is still in progress. I had received an email saying that the police verification had initiated and the police did get in touch with relatives back in India. The status on passport portal has been "Print has been initiated" for about a week now.

Didnt do any follow ups yet. My wife already had a PCC processed last month and that is likely why they didnt initiate a police verification for her.

Application date:- 21/01/2022
Did you put India address for your daughter and Canada address for your wife ? For my daughter (who is in Canada, a minor dependent) we have to put India address on the passport. BLS clearly mentioned that it has to be India address. Did you have similar situation?

This was really helpful.
mine says "Grant On Hold Send to CSE". not sure what this means... I googled and found that CSE means Customer service executive".

I submitted application on 1st Sep 2021 and this last update was on 27th Sep 2021 and no movement after that.
Did you get your passport?

Thank you. My daughter's passport is status is stuck with status "Passport application along with fee details have been received. The same is under processing at the Embassy/Consulate " for quite long. In fact, there is no File No generated for the file as well. Did you also run into issue where file number is not generated for your child application ?

Daughter's passport took longer to have a file number but only by a few days.

my status in passport seva website -said processing at consulate General on Feb 19th and status went to under review in on March 04 and no progress after that.
Some people got their passport in 19-20 days . For me its almost 5 weeks and dint get the passport yet. Its case by case basis I think.

Same case with my daughter's passport renewal. There is no file number generated on CGI website as well. My passport renewal was submitted same day and is now in transition to BLS.

Hello Friends, Can anyone suggest whats the next step and how long it would take after police verification is clear?
Here are my timelines so far,

02 Feb 2022 - In Transit from BLS To Consulate General - BLS Status
03 Feb 2022 - Processing at Consulate General - BLS Status
08 Feb 2022 - Sent for Police Verification to local PS - Passport India Portal Status in Inspect Mode
14 Mar 2022 - Police Verification Clear - Passport India Portal Status in Inspect Mode

How long it would take after this step? Worried as I have my ticket booked on Apr first week.
