Finally our OCI journey is over after many months of waiting and uncertainity. Received our passports with U Visa stamp and OCI booklets. Everything looks fine. I am thankful to this great forum as it was the only source of info, when there was no way to contact the Houston consulate for...

CONGRATS Super_Duper Sir CONGRATS Super_Duper Sir...I know it has been a long wait...few more days and we should be done with OCI process

Sethumadhavan...Apart from the US passport what are the documents or copies you included in the package you sent?

Super, Our Documents were received at Houston today only...We had the patience all these days...Maybe in another one or two days, you should the have OCI granted...

OCI Application Date : 27-Dec-2010 OCI Application Ack & Photo Scanned : 4 Feb-2011 We are also in the same boat as several applicants who applied OCI directly with the consulate. I applied OCI for myself and my wife in Dec 2010. Our first round of frustration was to get surrender...

The Surrender Certificate processing seems to be happening in 10 to 15 days now. The OCI acknowledgement seems to be happening in less than 30 days but not sure if there is any improvement on the timeline of OCI granting. Based on this forum and immihelp it looks like people who have been...

My OCI Application was acknowledged and photo Scanned on 04-Feb-2010...seems to be moving little faster... Has anybody got OCI granted recently? Would like to guess approximate timeline between ack and granting of OCI.

Good to see that the ack is done in 45 days. My OCI app was received at Houston on 27-Dec-2010. Hoping to see the ack next week or the following week.

Received SC on 22-Dec-2010 (...after 96 days) Preparing for OCI...

Akash, It is better to get the SC before applying for OCI. If you see replies from other members in this thread (page 44) OCI packet was returned. SC has to be included in the OCI application otherwise it gets rejected. I am not sure if anything has changed now. If you know of anyone who...

Has anyone seen the below link? It is a petition about poor service by the consulate www_DOT_petitiononline_DOT_com/CGISFOKP/petition_DOT_html (was not allowing me to place url, replace _DOT_ with .) I don't see any date on it. Is this a recent petition? Anyway please sign it. Are...

enno, You will have to apply and get SC before applying for OCI. Check out other threads. OCI application has been returned for few of them stating that SC has to be done before applying for OCI.

Thanks sunks. Houston consulate does not answer calls or reply to emails. Do you check if your cashiers check or money order has been cashed? Maybe that will give a clue that they have opened the mail. I will check mine at the bank next week.

sunks, Did you get the SC or are you still waiting? When did you exactly apply? I applied on 17-Sep and am still waiting.

coolcatz2375, What is the Houston Consulate email address you sent the query and letter?

Thanks Vinnu for the reply. So it is taking 2 months to process SC now. Can't believe they take so long for SC after collecting $175+$20. I guess I will have to wait for atleast 2 more weeks since I applied on 17-Sep. Sorry to see that your OCI was not processed.

Vinnu When did you apply for the SC? I sent the SC application on 17-Sep. I have not received the SC till now. There is no response to the emails so far. Thanks
