    OCI process

    For future OCI applicants, original COPR should not be sent by Purolator. You may carry your original COPR along with the copy of COPR if going for in-person application and even then just give the copy of COPR. Only show the original if they ask for it.

    OCI process

    In my opinion, look for the USA jurisdiction list of documents or checklist and see if you can apply or not. Also another forum discussion from 2016 says "Yes". https://www.immihelp.com/forum/india-passport-visa-oci/151652-canadian-citizen-applying-for-oci-from-us

    OCI process

    NY GCI is at least responsive and said it will take a min 30 days. I will continue to check and will update on my status. But I am positive you will get response earlier than mine as you applied at least 2 weeks before I did. Fingers crossed.

    OCI process

    I was under the same impression and was going to do that, but when I called BLS about it they said its not recommended to apply without Canadian passport. I tried to argue as to why, but did not get any convincing response. In order not to fight the system, I waited until I received Canadian...

    My in-laws were both government employees and received a letter from CIC asking to provide Details of Government Employment in next 30 days. I am hoping that the above contenders received their PPRs.
