OCI is NOT a visa, it is similar to permanent residency, so you can permanently stay in India on OCI

Like Sharkando said, you must contact FRRO while in India to report change in status from eVisa to OCI. They will process it and it should be fine. The visa does not get canceled, it gets overridden, although it is still valid. The issue is it is illegal to stay more than 6 months in any visa...

Question - Do they check under which category the appointment is? They used to not do that 3-4 months back, but I want to make sure. I booked an appointment with Toronto BLS under visa but want to surrender the passport.

Hey, I had my Express entry application stuck for one whole year in IP1. But, mine was a different situation. When they asked for the RPRF then it basically is given that your wife will get approval. In my case the AOR was of Jan 2018 and then I got the RPRF mail in Jan 2019. I got my send the...
