I can only answer 1) - I stuck the photo before, the counter people did not have glue stick with them and I had to go out and buy it and stick myself.

Do I need my 2 month old daughters thumb impression on part b of the printed form ? I'm finding it difficult to get her impression for upload, let alone on the printed form.

For those who submitted application for minors where minor was able to sign the application form.. who signed the self attested copy of the supporting documents? Did you got it signed by minor or yourself along with spouse? Please help.
I am thinking I will sign along with my spouse.. it does not make sense to expect a minor to sign self attestation....then still have a doubt.. Since this is self attestation.. I should sign my copies and my spouse should sign hers... dont know if it is more confusing.. as you rightly pointed out..BLS checklist creates more questions than answers....
Adults applicants shall self attest their documents them-self,I am thinking I will sign along with my spouse.. it does not make sense to expect a minor to sign self attestation....then still have a doubt..

I should sign my copies and my spouse should sign hers... dont know if it is more confusing.. as you rightly pointed out..BLS checklist creates more questions than answers....
For minor applicants either one parent can attest the minors documents, if that parent applying for OCI along with the child ,
No need to have childs thumb impression on attesting documents.

It all required as per process , it should be ok even it looks like small dot , I suggest to use a fingerprint pad.

Does bls actually take the checklist along with the application? Or its just for our reference only ? The reason I'm asking is that it has signature on every page. Not sure if they are expecting a thumb impression from minors on every page.
Do we get an email with acknowledgement? I still can not track it on OCI website after one week. On BLS site, it is saying, processing at consulate general. Can someone suggest?
Try using reference number you got by email when you completed the OCI online application. That is different than the tracking number you got from bls.
If you can not find the reference number, you can use the lost reference number link on OCI enquiry page to retrieve your reference number.
Thanks, is that starts with CANT? I didn't get any email after submitting online application. Also when I am trying to retrieve it from DOB and passport number, it says, no record found.
I got three tracking numbers in total.
First one was CANVxxxxxN18. Mine is V as I applied for Vancouver. It came by email when I completed the online application. If you have a pdf or printed copy of the application, it should printed on that as well. This one is used to track on OCI site.
Then I got two more while submitting the app at BLS office. One was for the surrender app and was starting with CANV. Other was for the OCI app and was starting with OCIV. Both of these are use to track on BLS site.
Thanks, I also got all 3 but nothing by email. First one was on application which I have downloaded after completing the online one. Other two are on BLS receipts. I still can not track my application using CANTxxxxxxxxx on below website.

Are you able to track it on this website? I applied last Thursday so its more than a week.
