Same! BLS portal says "Ready for collection". No further changes on OCI portal. Had taken Premium Lounge service. Hoping to get a Purolator tracking for this soon.
OCI process
- Thread starter blueshirt
- Start date
Thank you so much for the update! The dreaded Stuck on 7/JAN/2026 is going be finally over!
The OCI portal still stuck on
OCI card dispatched from printing cell on 07/JAN/2026
OCI card received at Mission/FRRO on N/A
But the BLS Tracking (https://www.blsindia-canada.com/toronto-jurisdiction/track-application.php) now says (Ready for collection/courier)
Anyone - how long does it take to receive through courier after status Ready for collection/courier ?
Did you check on purolator with your Application Reference Number as Tracking id?
I did, i tried the CANT... number on purolator tracking but it says "Information not available".
Cant get BLS on call, but are we able to collect the OCI in person, like a walk-in at Mississauga ?
The collection time is between 3:00–4:00 PM, but applications marked for courier are dispatched almost immediately upon reaching BLS. As a result, the window to collect them is very small.
Thank you, I just checked again on Purolator and it now says "Shipper created a label". That is a relief.
Jan 23, 2026 : courier information available on bls website
Purlator website: Jan 26, 2026- expected date of delivery
Jan 24 , 2026: Received at Mission /FRO status changed on OCI website

And no activity on OCI and BLS website until all of a sudden on 2026-01-23 the BLS tracker was updated with status as (Ready for collection/courier) and the next day it was dispatched via Purolator courier and finally received after the weekend on Jan 26th and till this day the OCI website is still stuck on the same status as above.

hello friends, I am applying for OCI from Toronto. Can you tell me under which headers to submit what documents? I mean, there are only 3 main headers? Canadian passport, Indian origin proof, and address proof. But I guess we also need to submit COPR, voter/ration card declaration and job letter.
1) Can you confirm if these are all the docs needed or more?
2) Under which header to upload voter/ration card surrender?
3) I have Ontario Photo Card for address. But header Address proof says Driver's License ? Is it ok to apply using Photo card under DL?
Thanks
