Option 1) You need to update your child's status from visitor to OCI holder just visit your nearest FRRO (Foreigners Regional Registration Office). This should help in ensuring the correct status is reflected in their records.

Option 2) If you encounter any difficulty or are unable to complete the update at the FRRO office as you don't have OCI with you , another option is to convert your child's e-visa into an Entry visa. You can only do it online on FRRO site you will receive it within 48 hours. Make sure it can only be done 15 days prior to the expiration of their current status(time span 180 days). Meanwhile try to get Kids OCI from Canada.

Option 3) Visit your nearest FRRO office.

I was reading your post regarding conversion of E-visa to OCI. Could you please share the process as to how it's done? I'm planning on travelling to India hopefully next month. Before I leave for India I'll be applying OCI and leave it under process and travel to India on E-visa. Once the OCI is granted I'll have it mailed to India. But I need to know how the conversion process is done from E-visa to OCI.
NOTE: This is for minor my newborn as for me I already have an OCI. Kindly share your experience TIA

So you have to register with FRRO
create acount their, fill the form for conversion
Then submit the required documents their fees is 500rs
Then you will get the approval letter next day
Or if you staying less than 180 days then you don’t need to register it.
you can travel next time with OCI to get it register

So you were able to change the status from E-visa to OCI or did you have to switch to entry visa first and then from Entry visa to OCI? Also what documents did they asked you to submit?

Can this process vary from city to city? My father-in-law went to the FRRO office in Bangalore to get information about changing e-visa to entry visa and they asked to fill out an application online, bring it IN PERSON to the FRRO office and then wait for 40 days for processing.
