OCI - Houston Tracker

Anyone applied recently to CGI-Houston ?

Mailed apps to CGI-HOUSTON - 07/03/06
Delivered - 07/05/06 ( from the confirmation receipt)
Online shows - apps is not yet ACknowledged
 
I also submitted my application on July 5th through Fedex Overnight. It was delivered on 07/06/2006. it still displays "Application with this number not yet Acknowledged". We will update once the status changes. Also, you guys have any idea when to expect the status to change? thanks
 
It looks like it takes about 2 weeks to generate the acknowledgement from the date CGI Houston receives the documents. In my case I sent the hard copy of Part A along with the other documents on 05/16/06. It reached CGI on 05/18/06. On 06/02/06 I received an email nforming me that the application was under process and telling me my acknowledgement no.

The online inquiry shows an acknowledgement date of 05/29/06. Hope this helps.

How many photos are required when applying for OCI in Houston?

When I looked at the Houston Consulate's website, at one place it says that only two photos are required and in another place it says that five photographs are required. How many photographs are actually required? Can I send the US passport photo with a white background? Please advice. Thanks. Dallas N400 Guy
 
I still haven't received the Acknowledgement.

I just called CGI houston. They seem to update the site frequently. Sometimes Friday happened to be that day. They haven't found my application yet. Once they enter in the system, we get an acknowledgement and also OCI processing for that application starts..

Mailing fee question

I am ready to apply to houston CGI office for total 3 members of my family.

What is the mailing fee?

Is it $15.00?

Or $15.00 (primary applicant) + $1.00 (spouse) + $1.00 (minor child) = $17.00

Or is it $15.00 + $15.00 + $15.00 = $45.00.

Thanks for your help.
