OCI process

[amit789]

I am writing to request assistance with accessing my Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) document through the PR Confirmation Portal.
I previously received a portal link and was able to access my COPR. However, when I log in now using the same link, I only see a new in‑progress application that I never completed as I became a Canadian citizen in the meantime and did not submit any new application.

I urgently need access to my original COPR document because I am applying for my Overseas Citizen of India (OCI), and the COPR is a required document for the application.

Hi , do we have someone here who submitted OCI application at BLS-Montreal? I submitted my OCI application at BLS-Montreal (Premium Lounge service) on 18-Sep-2025 and the status as per OCI portal is "Under Process" and BLS portal is "Processing at High Commission". Wondering how long it would take to move to next stage. I need to travel from Montreal to India on Dec-17,2025 and not sure whether I would get the OCI received by end of Nov or 1st week of Dec-2025. If not , I have to apply for India Visa. Looks like OCI application submitted at Montreal will take a LONGER route. Any comments from anyone would be appreciated.

How long did it take you to receive the OCI?

My application was submitted at BLS Toronto on September 4th.

There has been no change in status, and it has appeared as "Under Process" since then. Is this normal? I see everyone posting acknowledgement dates, but I have not received any.
