OCI process

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

I applied in Toronto. I got mine granted in almost 4 weeks after being acknowledged.

Apologies if this is the wrong thread,

I am trying to submit an OCI application through ociservices.gov.in. The "Previous Nationality" section is missing in "Part B" (step 4). I tried it many times in different browsers and devices.

I know for sure it was there before, my first attempt in submission (which BLS turned down) had it. I also found it in YouTube walkthroughs.

Am I missing something?

Its been close to a month now, my OCI was granted. I recently downloaded eOCI as well. It says that they have dispatched the booklet from printing cell but not received in FRRO/MISSION.

With the fact that eOCI has been given, will I ever receive the hard copy or they stopped distribution of it

Got my OCI Booklet. Collected I person from Toronto BLS. They updated the oci and bls portal on Jul 25

Hey bro, quick question about the tracking. Did the official OCI portal actually change status updates for you after 'Granted', or did it just stay on 'Granted' while only BLS updated to show it was ready for pickup or delivery

Hi how do you check if your file is acknowledged? Do we get email update or update in the OCI portal?
