    I got a Passport request for my mother. Applied in 2018. They asked to submit it to Visa Office in Delhi. But I don't see any option on the VFS office site in Delhi for a process to submit. Does anyone know if the VFS office in Delhi is a walk-in?

    One other thing - When your file goes in Decision Made status, the CIC metric of 12 months is reached. Now you are in the queue which is not tracked, no accountability. I don't think there will be any fast turnaround because of age of application. Here is the reference -...

    OCI

    I am waiting for my Oath invite (DM already) and I need to submit OCI for my child. They said that they will take PR card. We need PR Card for Oath. Do you suggest to wait and apply after I get my citizenship. Will that effect my child application negatively?
