OCI - San Francisco Tracker

Checked the online website today and mine was acknowledged.
Not bad July 10th sent docs.
USPS delivered July 13th
Acknowledged July 16th
Photo/signature scanned -July 17th (But today is the 16th-so is it Indian time/date??)
 
Part B copies?

Hi,

I am applying for OCI for 4 of us, myself, wife and 2 kids. Do i need to submit same Part B two forms for all 4 of us, or just myself and my wife? please clarify. Also should we specify parents in relatives question of Part B ?

I may have to travel to India in between so will not be sending original US and India passports and PIO card for a child, i hope that's ok.

please share your views on this.

Just two copies of Part-B for all 4 of your family. Parents should be sufficient in Part-B "family living in India" details. You will have to send the Indian Passport to cancel it, if you have not done it already. If you have already canceled your Indian Passport, then no need to send it.
You should not be sending your US Passport or your PIO card at this time and should only send it to the consulate, when the online status changes for your application to docs received from Delhi. The SF consulate has more detailed instructions. Please refer to it for more information.

Now it is showing the Photo/Signature has been scanned but my Registration Status is still showing Under Process. What does that mean?

Thanks!
 
Not sure-mine was under process for about a day before changing to granted. But they are doing it really fast!

If the scans are found satisfactory, your registration status should change to 'granted'. It should happen fairly soon.
 
aditi_s

I have exactly the same dates as you. Today morning it shows granted and printed.

I would like to note that
This the most efficient and transparent process from Indian consulate or any other consulate.

Sent my US Passports today

Sent our US Passports and my daughter's POI card for stamping after the status changed to "Docs received at SF from Delhi".
 
Not sure whats going on with my application.
it still says on website : "Application with this number not yet Acknowledged"

SF CGI website says not to contact before 21 business days.

It shows the time in India, and hence the July 30th appearing before July 29th

M online status now shows - mailed from Delhi on 28th.
I plan to send my passport and the kids PIOs
 
OCI from SFO to Mumbai?

Hi,
I have completed online OCI application for myself with family to apply in SFO, but due to urgent travel for medical reason, I have to travel to India next week so I got tourist visa.
Can I use same online application and submit in India FRRO office in Mumbai? please let me know if this is ok, or do i need to create another application and submit it there in Mumbai.

If you are going for a short time, submit the application after coming back...

If you plan to be in mumbai for a long time, then ou will need to file a new application..
