My friend is a student in a Canadian university and has a Indian PP. He wants to visit his family during the summer break. What is the procedure? Can someone please clarify?

As far as I know, the Indian embassy in DC uses UPS and not USPS (US mail). I could call FedEx and give them my home address to check if any pkt was coming my way on a particular day but could not do it with UPS. UPS needs a tracking # which we dont get from the US Embassy for packets they send us.

If you look at my timeline, you will see that it took about a week from when they recd it. Actually, my docs reached my address on 1/24 but since I wasnt at home at the time, UPS attempted delivery a second time on 1/25 which is when I got the docs on hand. Hope this helps

Thanks, emno. I hope u get ur docs back in order. Someone (whos still a GC) suggested to me (ofcourse after I got my SC!) that perhaps someone in my situation could courier a letter to the embassy OCI wing (not email) explaining the situation and enclose two notarized SC application forms. In...

Got my SC issue resolved today.. http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?320581-Applied-for-OCI-and-SC-together-but-received-only-OCI-from-Embassy-in-DC-PLEASE-HELP!!

Got SC finally! I finally got my SC issue squared away. I had mistakenly recorded in my mind that i had to be there between 9:30 and 12:30. So, reached there at 11 and as smart84 said, the guy who answered the buzzer asked me to return at 12:30. I returned at 12:20 and checked in with the...

Hi smart84, this is the most useful set of information I have on this topic. I went by USPS and the guy said they can only put a tracer (that could take several weeks) and not actually tell me if it was cashed and I would be better off asking the recepient! What can I tell him? In the past, I hv...

I will but I am not sure what is the best time during the day to do so would be. I live ~2.5 hrs from DC. I had two SC forms notarized and I mailed both of them as a part of the appln packet. I didnt make a copy of the notarized form. Now, would I have to carry two more notarized applications...

Folks, I hope someone will be able to shed light on my situation. I applied for my OCI and SC together and received a packet from the Indian Embassy in DC yesterday. I had my Indian PP with a canceled seal and clipped on two edges, my OCI booklet and OCI stamping on the US PP. No SC or letter...

I did send my OCI and SC applications together in one packet..I have sent them an email yest and I kept trying their # all day long. No luck there

And I did not get that piece of form after endorsing:(:confused:. All I had in the envelope was my Indian PP clipped at two edges with a seal inside, my OCI stamp on US PP and OCI booklet. I hope its coming in a diff packet or something but without a tracking # UPS wont tell me if I am getting...

Hi, did you have a letter or separate sheet of paper for the Surrender Certificate?

Received OCI but did not get SC in the packet - can someone please respond urgently? Guys, I just had UPS deliver the OCI documents. My US PP is stamped and I have a OCI booklet. My Indian PP has a seal on next to the photo page that its canceled - acquired US Citizenship and the passport is...

I sent my PP on Mon - 17th and delivered on 18th. Still waiting for docs to be returned to me. Any idea if the embassy uses FedEx or UPS to send the docs back?

Hey, Last night when I checked the status, it said the docs will be received on 1/14 (today!). My question is with MLK Day on 17th and Sankranthi weekend etc etc, whats the holiday schedule of the Indian embassy? Is there someplace the holidays are listed for the DC consulate? Thanks,

all valid guesses, Superho.. With so many holidays, its difficult to say what may be the cause of the delay.. It may be that our docs are received and someone just forgot to push a button.. that would be sad :-(

Thanks, smart84.. I shall play the waiting game...

No update since dispatch.. Hi guys, I have no update since the last one that said the docs have been dispatched.. Should I be contacting the embassy or just send my PP for stamping or just stay for the status to change? My status says - Docs received at Washington - Not Yet

Update on OCI status A quick update on my OCI status

Thanks so much.. It works once i enter my PP # and I am printing it!
