need to apply OCI for me

I sent in copies of his Indian and US passports which seem enough as I see that his OCI has been granted.

I'm planning on applying OCI for my son and I'm wondering what documents I need to enclose.

Will notarized copies of his Indian and US passports do ?

When I applied for myself I also included a copy of my naturalization certificate which my son does not have yet.

Thanks.
 
What is the current passport number

Guys,

Totally confused....:-)

I am USA citizen. Online OCI application asks for "Current Passport Number". Do we have to type in USA passport number ?

Thanks in advance.
 
Submitted twice

This OCI on-line application is so stupid. (Or am I ??)

Just did navigation back and it resubmitted the application with a new reference number? Am I in trouble?
 
Form B question

Does USA allow dual citizenship? There is a question on Part B of OCI form. I think USA generally does not allow dual citizenship. Am I right?

Sorry for so many questions folks...
 
No problem.Usa does allow dual nationality.It is Indian's who have probelm.I also filled out few times and got different file numbers .But the only one they are concerned is the one you mail in.It just does error check.As long you have correct informatuion your good.Make sure you send noterise copies in duplicate of you application, usa/Indian passport.three passport pictures.two attached to application one extra clipped/Not stapled.

Mine was DC.Mine took about month and half .I see they have approved and dispatched it to DC.I fillied out A/B online,printed it took it to bank to get it noterise.I took copies of my US/Indian passport,along with marriage certificate.Since it has my spouse info in it .I also send me my sons birth certificate for his visa..I noterised one set made copies and sent in 2 copies and three total pictures.It is very simple.I guess folks feel it need whole lot of document but as long as you fill info out correctly you should be good.Dc ack very fast whereas I have seen other Do take forever to process OCI.GoodLuck let me know if I can answer any more Q.:)

what is missent? is it missing? amazing they have problems with certified mail?
 
i called USPS and they did not give explaination. They tried to track it for me and said that it was delivered to OCI on 17th Jan.

I still have not received any receipt from OCI. Does any one know how long does it generally take for the acknowedgement?
 
I just read posts by n400 asi? and dude4m..from that i think it takes one and half a months for OCI to acknowledge...

i will wait...:D
 
Hope everything is ok now ?

NYCGI usually take less than 2 weeks to acknowledge your application on their website.
