I've sent application on 8/23. It looks like it takes anywhere between 3-4 wks for the application to get acknowledged. Let's see how it goes.

Thanks for sharing your dates. I am three days behind and I hope they will acknowledge in couple of days.

Thanks

There seems no rhyme or reason to the timeline. Some people had photo/signature scanned, registration approved, documents printed and dispatched on the same day. In my case the documents are still waiting to be dispatched 10-11 days after the photo/signature was scanned. But I guess I am nitpicking here because things are still going much faster than they do at other consulates and of course anything I applied for with USCIS.

Update

Documents finally dispatched ! It seems that they dispatch documents to the US in batches. Some people whose documents were scanned on the 08/27/07 had them dispatched on the same day (and they already arrived at CGI NY on 08/31/07 !).

How do you get the application received date ? Is it based on USPS tracking ?

I sent my application by Fedex but yes that is just the date the package was received and signed for at CGI NY.

The OCI process at CGI NY seems to go in a predictable fashion (with just a few days of variation in the timeline) as evidenced from the previous two posts. In my case I am hoping the documents will be received at CGI NY soon. I will be going to the consulate in NYC in person to get my passport stamped with the OCI. I will let you all know how that goes ...
