I sent the Indian passport for Cancellation along with my OCI Application 3 weeks back (Jan19, 2007) . When are they suppose to send back the canceled Indian passport to me?
 
OCI Update

When I checked the Online OCI enquiry website last night, it was updated to show that my application was acknowledged on 2/11. I still have not received the letter but I should hopefully get it within next 2-3 days.

OCI Online Application 12/27/2006
OCI App mailed to Chicago 12/28/2006
Application Received 12/29/2006
Acknowledged 2/11/2007

OCI details

Just got my acknowledgement today

Applied online on 12/7/2006
Mailed documents on 12/19/2006
Granted scanned/printed/dispatched 02/13/2007
Received at Chicago - ??

As the OCI tracker site indicates , I plan to take an appointment 10 days after dispatch from Delhi (ie. the 23rd of Feb). Is 10 days sufficient time to wait or should I wait for the status to change on the OCI trackerwebsite before I schedule the appointment ?
 
It looks like Chicago consulate is processing the applications faster than before.

My status was updated to "acknowledged" on Feb. 11.
Today it says "granted and scanned" on 2/15

Just checked the website. Docs were received at Chicago today. I will mail my passports tomorrow. Hopefully I should have the U visa and the booklet in the next week or so.

Can this happen anywhere else?

Hi:
Is the online registration # same as the USAC#? Thanks.
Click to expand...

They had my applicaiton for 90 days, and LOST my money order. They sent my forms back claiming that they never got my MO. I can't believe this, but, that is what happened!:mad: Did this happen to anyone else?

On top of everything, they did not send my entire application back. They only sent the main form and I am not sure if I have to send three copies again or only one copy. They did mark the USAC # on the passports. Any ideas as to how I can contact the embassy to find if I have to send the application pakcage in its entirety OR just what was sent back to me with the MO?

On top of that, they sent my passports back in the regular USPS mail and want 5$ MO to cover their cost (which was 2$). I am complaining because, they could have used the postage paid Express Mail that I included.:mad: :mad:
 
Just got my OCI booklet and my US passport delivered to the door via DHL>
