Has anyone who applied for OCI through BLS Edmonton on September 6th received any updates? My application reached the OCI tracker on September 10th and has been showing “Under Process” ever since. It’s been over 1.5 months now with no update anyone in a similar situation?

To cancel voter ID: Go to https://voters.eci.gov.in/
Login with your registered mobile number and submit form 7.
After submitting Form 7, reach out to you BLO/ERO: You can find their contact here: https://electoralsearch.eci.gov.in/pollingstation
Follow up with them to cancel Voter ID.

Take form 7 acknowledgement printout and submit it with your application at BLS. They need this along with declaration form.

There is also a youtube video about whole process:

I have been trying to cancel my Voter ID card but it shows that my EPIC number is not linked with my profile. Although I can download my voter ID e-card using my EPIC and the phone number but somehow it just does not allow me to go to form 7. Any idea how I can solve this issue ?

I am trying to fill form 7 in order to delete my name from Voter ID. Somehow, I am getting alert message "User does not have Epic No. in his/her profile . Cannot proceed to Form7 / Form6B ." I already have added my Epic ID in my profile, still I got that alert message. Is anyone facing same issue? if any one knows how to resolve this please let me know.

Also, is anyone knows how to delete name from Ration card (Gujarat)?

Hi Hardik
Were you able to solve this issue online ?
I am facing the same problem and can't find an online solution.

It appears to be server issue. Mine was granted yesterday and today it changed to pending. People on other groups are also having similar discussions that status changed to pending.

Hi, how long did it take to change back to granted?

 

[SamSam21]

Interesting! Same for my applications. It was granted and in printing yesterday.
Just checked now and it’s pending. Safe to say that it’s a system issue on their end.

Hi, how long did it take for your applications to change back to granted. It happened to me today, changed back to Under Process from Granted.
