I don’t think you will get OCI before your flight. I applied on October 31 2023 at Brampton BLS, got acknowledgment on December 4 2023, and I’m expecting my OCI today as per purolator tracking. Check your receipt from the day you applied, if it has courier fees, you will get it by purolator.Minor Oci applied at Brampton; Status still says under process.. received acknowledgment on 13 December. Our flight is booked for 24th Jan! Please suggest if it’s worth waiting or should I apply for e-visa? Also how do we collect the oci when it’s ready?

I just received my OCI. The purolator guy didn’t ask for my name, so I think anyone present in the house could sign and receive the package.thanks for your response! I will apply for evisa today itself.
Any suggestions about the Oci collection? Is it required for both parents to go collect the Oci from bls? Or can a friend collect it when purolator guys come to deliver?
