OCI process

November 6th 2025 - OCI Submitted at BLS Surrey
November 8th 2025 - Under process at the OCI Portal
No update since. Is anyone in the same boat?
 
Even after receiving the OCI booklet - the ociservices.gov.in tracker still says:-

OCI card delivered to applicant on - N/A



is this a reason for concern?

Hi,
Thank you. On OCI portal date changes after they acknowledge your application. Say you submitted online application (on portal) on 25th of nov., went in person 27th of nov. to submit docs. Now in my case it was showing under process from very beginning, but the date changed to 15th dec. (On portal , outside on dashboard you will see the date When you submitted the application online, but when you click view the date inside is the date that matters).

This is the date they actually acknowledged that they have received the physical docs as well. I hope this answers your question. Good luck.

This fully addresses my question. Thank you for the clear explanation. Would you also be able to update the dispatch/delivery status once you know. Thanks again.

Hello! I'm going to have to renew my Canadian passport. I believe I have to update my OCI? Is this a simple process - how long will it take?

you will get the booklet by the end of next week
 
While submitting the oci application on the oci services website, they ask for a photo with a light colored but not white background. And for the physical photo, they ask for a photo with a white background. I was going to upload a photo with the white background only, as that's what i have as a hard copy. Will there be any issues?
