OCI Miscellaneous - NEW process

[kulb]

As per April 2021 guidelines, the Government will no longer re-issue of OCI Card each time a new passport was obtained up to the age of 20 years and once after the age of 50 years. However, the OCI Cardholders will be required to upload online a copy of the new passport & latest photo.

My daughter has obtained a new Canadian passport upon expiry of the previous one. I uploaded her new passport & photo on the OCI web portal under OCI Miscellaneous Services and got an automatic email after I uploaded the new passport and completed Part B.

My status is as follows: Your application has been acknowledged by competent authorities. It is under consideration

Anyone else who has gone through the process recently? If so, what is your status?

Yes my daughter's passport number was updated in her OCI records. It took 5 weeks for processing.
