BLS service is really bad. If you just upload the documents based on the dropdown from the website they will give you hard time when you go there and will ask you to book another appointment if you want to upload all correct documents or buy premium longue and they can do it for you. When I asked them that I have all the documents according to the checklist but there was no option/Dropdown to upload them to the Website, they told me that combine all those documents or atleast few documents with one of the documents from the options in the dropdown and then submit that combine pdf. But yes they do need all the documents from the checklist to be uploaded online even if they don't have that document mentioned in the dorpdown of the website. And they do need to see all those documents and the copy of those documents in person as well. make sure you have 1 copy of all the documents as they will take it from you.I am filling the OCI online application form. There is a section where we need to upload documents. It shows only 3 drop down options for uploading documents. However, the OCI instruction PDF obtained from MEA website says the following:
"v) All documents as per the checklist must be uploaded to the application website in any available column or merge. as the website is used globally, and the upload process is carried out according to the checklist requirements. "
Could someone please explain exactly what I should do for the documents? Will they only look at the documents uploaded or will they look at all documents I submitted to BLS?
Hey,As a Canadian citizen, do you have to apply for OCI (and renunciation) only from within Canada? I obtained Canadian citizenship and then moved to the US for a job (on a US work visa). I'd like to know if I can apply for OCI from the US.
