Thanks for sharing your timeline. Did you send any original documents also with the postal application?

Thanks!

Only Name change Affidavit (applicable in my case) was sent in orignal. Rest all documents were printed and self attested before mailing them to BLS. Hope this answers your query.
Note:

• If you have any doubts during the process, consider calling BLS or referring to YouTube videos for clarification on specific steps.
