update:

I denied BLS courier service at the counter and opted for pick up.

they charged me $25.10 as fees. When I asked what are these charges person at the counter told me it was a bls fees+ verification fees.

I complained about this to BLS using their escalation matrix.
I received a call stating the breakdown of $25.10
$5 printing $6 for updates notification $6 verification fees by CGI $7.40 bls fees $.70 for debit transaction.

There was no documents that they printed for me. (They refunded)
They didn’t ask me if I want notifications or not. (They refunded)
I paid cash. (Debit fees they refunded)

For CGI verification fees they said.. its CGI new thing We can’t refund that money

so, guys please make sure you complain about things which you think are not good.. post reviews on google as well.
They are Scammers and they never apologized for anything pr explained why there were extra charges without service.

On this the person said they can see status on BLS website

For me even on BLS website it shows no record found
It takes time for postal applications to be updated on BLS website
you sent the package to BLS to their receiving facility from there on they will allocate it to the BLS offices for processing and then further on from BLS to Consulate/High Commission
Hope BLS update should happen soon but OCI update will only be 20+ after this

Applying for minor OCI. Submitting it in person at BLS Halifax. Can any one help me of I can get the Money order from Canada Post? Will BLS accept it? Thanks!
I got a money order from Canada Post for the passport surrender and did not have any issues. I am probably going to do the same for my OCI when I apply.
