This is for parents with Indian passports who were able to get OCI for their minor children.
I moved to India for good in February. I didn't face any issues at the Chennai immigration.
Hi alt
Did you get any response from MEA? I too have asked them the same question and have not recv any reply so far. I am going back to India for good in Jan 2007 and want to make sure that my child's OCI is still valid.
Thanks.
Hi
I am one of the lucky ones (or may be unlucky, only time will tell) to get OCI for my kid though we both are Indian citizens. Does this mean trouble for those who already got the OCI?
Thanks for the information. So it was indeed ambiguous at the time when I applied. With the current rules in mind I am not sure whether I will take a chance. I don't want to face a situtation where I go to India and my child is stopped at the immigration.
Hi
I applied for OCI for my child (US born) in Jan 2006 and got it in Feb 2006. In my case, both me and my wife are Indian citizen. As per current rules she is not eligible for OCI.
As far as I remember, at the time when I applied for OCI back then in Jan 2006, I didn't come across any rule...
Correction to OCI Card and Visa
I applied OCI for my daughter some time back and recv the OCI Card and the OCI Visa in reasonable time. Though the whole OCI process is kind of automated in terms of collecting the data, they still made a mistake. The US passport number was printed wrong on both...
Yes. OCI for my child was granted on 1st Feb 2006 as per MHA Online Status.
FYI The reference number assigned during online registration part A still says File Number doesn't exist. I got a different number from Chicago Consulate along with the receipt which gave the Granted status.
Recv the OCI
I finally got the OCI card for my minor kid. But as expected there were mistakes. They did this before to my Indian passport too. I guess I will have to send it back to get it corrected.
Chicago consulate have started publishing OCI applicant information on their website. They are publishing information which I feel should not be published. What a crap. :mad: . They have posted the following information:
Ref. No: Name of the Applicant USA / Foreign Passport No. OCI...
I applied for my minor kid couple of weeks back at Chicago Consulate. Got a acknowledgement y'day along with a File Number. The status on MHA website says 'Granted'. Will post when I get the OCI certificate and U Visa.
