Hi All,

Me and my wife are both US Citizens with OCI. Our son is 4 months old and a US Citizen. For our son, which one is recommended - OCI or PIO ? I read the requirements for both documents at the BLS website and it looks like our son is eligible for either PIO or OCI. As far as I read in the BLS website, OCI looks like a better deal for son. But I read in some other forums that for minor kids, PIO is better since they dont have to be renewed every 5 years like the OCI. Is that so? are there any other pros/cons for a minor kid for PIO vs OCI?

Thanks a lot. It's been 10 years since I joined this forum and the information i received over the years has been phenomenal !!

THanks
