[vkamath]

My Card is ready for Pickup at BLS will pick it up tomorrow.

Has anyone who applied for OCI through the Vancouver Consulate with an acknowledgement date of 17 April received approval yet?

If you have a travel apply for the Visa. OCI will take atleast 2 months.

I received an alert on the OCI portal to get enrolled in the Fast Track Immigration program. Has anyone else also clicked to give consent to get enrolled?

Any recent BLS Toronto surrender certificate timelines? Applied in person May 29 status still says Application is under process at Indian Embassy/Consulate. Saw some timeliness from last month online showing the process was completed in 2-3 weeks.

The Fast-Track Immigration - Trusted Traveller Programme (FTI-TTP) is a free initiative by the Indian Government that allows eligible travelers to bypass long queues and use automated e-gates at major international airports

I did say yes, congrats that means your card is dispatched from Prnting cell

3 weeks on the dot for me (picked it up in person). Applied in early May.

Yeah, I know what this FTI-TTp thing is, but nobody mentioned that we can enroll via the OCI portal too. So, my question is, I am in India right now on an e-Visa and traveling back to Canada soon. My OCI will be delivered to my Canadian address. Am I still eligible to give my biometrics for FTI_TTP at Delhi Airport without my actual OCI Card with me?

hi! I submitted my OCI application in person at BLS Toronto on June 6. BLS tracker shows “processing at consulate,” but the oci portal still shows “under-process” with no acknowledgement yet.
From what I’ve seen on this forum, most people get the acknowledgement within a few days.
Is anyone else experiencing a similar delay?

Thanks!

Finally Picked up Card but not before wasting 120 dollars on a business Visa if they would have done this last month. Wow its a long journey from Work Permit -> PR -> Ciitzenship -> OCI. Good luck every one. Adios.

I think the status change from Pending to Under Process is your acknowledgement. The next update will be Granted or Not Granted, if they do not need any additional documents from you.
