OCI process

[SamSam21]

Hey

Apologies in advance if my questions are basic in nature.
I applied for OCI for my child at BLS center on 26th Sep, as a walk-in.
When I login to ociservices website, I see no change whatsoever with a "
Note : The application is not acknowledged at the Mission/ FRRO yet."

However when I login to BLS it shows "Processing at Consular General"
is it normal? Where do we need track OCI status?

Also I applied from Toronto, how much time its taking nowadays?

Hi. If you applied on 26th Sep, the consulate must have received it from BLS in the next 2 business days or so (say 29th or 30th sep). That's when it starts showing "Processing at CG" on BLS site while OCI tracker (ociservices.gov.in) shows "Pending".

From what I have seen, it takes 3-4 weeks for Toronto applications to be acknowledged after they reach Consulate. That's when you should see the status change to "Under Process" on the OCI website. Considering it's been almost 4 weeks, you should check the OCI tracker (you should see an update already or soon). If it gets delayed further, perhaps get in touch with BLS, they may advise writing to Consulate directly.

After that stage, it takes another 3 weeks or so to change to Granted on OCI.

HI, I applied on 26th sep at BLS Toronto and my application is also not yet acknowledged on the OCI portal. I guess there is a delay in acknowledgement. Please update if you see change in status on OCI portal in the coming days.
