Photo Scanned today :-) Application Received: 8/21/07 Application Acknowledged: 9/7/07 Photo Scanned: 9/14/07 Registration: Under Process Whew, I thought there was a problem with my application. Maybe they process applications in batches. Applications received later for that batch end up on...

Problem with Application? My application was received at NY on August 21, and was acknowledged on September 7, yet I do not see any Photo/Signature Scanned field on the enquiry web page. People whose application was received later than mine seem to be in better shape. I wonder if this...

Photo/signature scanned I see references to this "Photo/Signature Scanned" dates on here. Where does one see this message? All I see under my name is "Under Process". I check my status on http://ociindia.nic.in/ociindia/OnlineOCIenquiry.jsp and I do not see the "Photo Scanned" field there...

On track now :) Ok, Application acknowledged today 09/07/07. So it looks like I am on track, maybe the Labor Day holiday caused the delay of 2 days compared to the ones who have posted their timelines here recently. OCI Application Received at NY: 08/21/07 OCI Application Acknowledged...

No luck for me :( My OCI application was received by the consulate on August 21, but it has not yet been acknowledged. My reference number is USANI43xxxxx. I entered this 12 character reference number on the Online OCI inquiry page, and it says "Application not yet acknowledged". Do others also...

Photograph models I wonder why the models for an Overseas Citizen of INDIA application are mostly white? Could they not get any Indian models? For example none of the white models have a mustache, while most Indian men do. After all, 99.99% of the applicants for an OCI card are not going to...

Hello, I have some questions about the OCI application. I fall under the New York jurisdiction. - It says on the Indian govt website in India that the supporting document copies are to be self-attested, while on the NY Consulate's web page, it says the copies have to be notarized. Where does...

Got my naturalization certificate Alright, it is official now. I am a naturalized US citizen, and have my Naturalization Certificate. I also still have my job. And yes, no one asked me at the Oath Ceremony if I am employed or not :-) I have applied for my passport and should receive it in 2-3...

Deleted to post a detailed question later

Now I noticed something strange on my Oath Letter. I am asked to bring GC and "Reentry Permit". I do not have any "Reentry Permit" with me. So what should I do?

Successful Interview experience at Boston Monday July 16, 2007 I had my interview in Boston on Monday, and it was far different from other interviews that I have read on here. It was over in something like 15 minutes. Maybe I got an IO in a good mood that morning. I was dressed formally, and...

Thanks This answered my question. This forum is very helpful. I will post my experiences on this forum after my interview next month.

Job mobility and Oath questions Yes, I worked for 3 years for the same employer after I got my GC, for a total of almost 6 years for that employer. However, given that nowadays job security is not there, I would think not many people would work for the same employer for 5 years after getting...

Changing employers Thanks. The last response brings up an interesting question. I had changed employers twice after getting my GC, all within the same field. Will that have a negative impact on my interview? I did stay on for 3 years with the same employer who sponsored my GC before changing...

I am supposed to have my interview next month. Because of some problems at work, I may not be able to hold on to my job for long. I hope I can make it till my interview date. If for some unfortunate reason, I am let go, or if I have to quit after my interview, will there be any problems at the...
