    OCI website says "OCI card dispatched from printing cell on - 17 June 2025". But the BLS tracking still says "Processing at consulate general". Any idea what the timeline will be here to receive it? (Toronto Jurisdiction and Postal application)

    Entered India on E-Visa - Got OCI - How to extend stay for more than 180 days

    Can this process vary from city to city? My father-in-law went to the FRRO office in Bangalore to get information about changing e-visa to entry visa and they asked to fill out an application online, bring it IN PERSON to the FRRO office and then wait for 40 days for processing. @Sss12

    OCI process

    Can someone kindly educate me if I am supposed to see the Acknowledgement date on this popup? My application was submitted on April 24th, 2025. Also, why is the "Application Date" field constantly changing and showing incorrect date?
