Status updated again today to: Registration Status Granted On 08-JUN-2010

chola, my friend, don't worry things will be fine ... congrats on the case movement... do not contact embassy just yet and save your time and energy for something more meaningful than trying to get in touch with those who are of no help.

overkill, you are really an "overkill" :-) I would like to get my money back too but I would wait before my OCI application is processed and I receive it in my hand and than I would take actions. This will help me getting my OCI and not having to deal with their "Process Creeping". Also you...

Hold your horses... you are going to kill several cases if you do that :-) Read this sentence clearly once again and put more stress on the Red/bolded sentence: "IT IS PUNISHABLE BY U.S. LAW TO COPY, PRINT OR PHOTOGRAPH THIS CERTIFICATE, WITHOUT LAWFUL AUTHORITY" "Without Lawful Authority"...

I will not take any action on refund until my OCI processed, once that done, I won't leave them. My status updated today to: Photo/Signature Scanned On 07-JUN-2010

Thank you VM!!! Great job GC2USC, saved lot of money buddy.

True sign of Indian Babu type processing. Now that ruling has been changed, why can't they just issue the refunds along with the OCI and be done with it, rather than asking us to mail another Certified check for the exact amount according to the new fee structure? Waste of time/money/efforts...

Ya right... they can do whatever they like. Like placing a new policy "Retroactively" to charge $175 to pretty much everyone and send back the documents submitted before the new policy was placed, without a start date and now that we "the people" have paid them money and asking the refund due...

GC2USC, sorry to hear that your package is back, but sorry to say that this time it was your mistake, yes, we all did send our Original Indian Passport for cancellation which make sense, what will they cancel if they don't have the Original Indian PPT, the photocopy? I totally understand about...

Waiting is best.

Congrats folks, for Ack'ed and for loosing hard earned money, I don't think consulate would return the extra $155 per application after the new ruling that was posted yesterday ... I again smell a legal action... Chola, I don't think Ack'ed means all docs are in good order, it just means the...

So the people "Like me" who have paid the fee already (at DC consulate) for renunciation, are going to get the refund of extra money that we pay i.e. $175 - $20 = $155. Or that goes in charity ... for babus?

sweet ... now fight to get my money back -- $175 is a big amount.

WOW... finally after 1 month of pain I have a good news ... my OCI application has been Ack'ed this afternoon... June 1 2010, status "Under Process" Date Of Acknowledgment : 01-JUN-2010

Okay another week wasted ...

Anybody's application got Ack'ed yet - People who sent the apps back 2nd time?

You call it Human error, I would like to assume the same but looks like they are just trying to buy as much time they can before they could start thinking straight ... and process the applications the correct way. We all know how much money and time is wasted if we make one error and there...

I am thinking if they send our documents back one more time ... we should all get together and kick their a*s by going to DC personally...

VM, Are you kidding me? What the hell ... they are indeed going nuts, just trying to buy as much time as they can before they would accept the applications ... and wasting our hard earned money ... absolutely ridiculous ... Where you located and where did you send your documents? DC...

VM - No ackd. yet ... here in NC I went to a AAA office and they refused to notarize my docs since I am not a member ... what a rip off ... I used to get it done in MA for $1 a paper at AAA... guess all have their own rules.
