OCI - San Francisco Tracker

Just got an email from Travisa
"Travisa Outsourcing has received your document back from Indian Consulate. We have verified that your request of OCI - New OCI Card (Adult) has been processed correctly. Your documents will now be prepared for shipment back to you. If you have not provided a prepaid air bill to ship your documents, you must do so immediately unless you are planning to pick up your documents in person."

Also on their site it now says

5/10/2011 10:33am PST Outsourcing office has verified the OCI is processed correctly. Ready for pickup between 4:30pm and 6:00pm. If mail back, waiting for FedEx pick up and is likely to be mailed out tomorrow.

Also on the Online OCI Enquiry Form it still says SFO still hasn't received it....
Regards
 
Wow Congratulations !!! Gundas. Good to hear this news. I just checked mine on both the CGI and TraVisa sites and still the same old message.

My OCI time line is same as yours - Dispatched on 28 Apr. Hopefully Travisa has our OCIs also by now. Just waiting anxiously ...

speakamericano - they just updated her status as well and they did accept the marriage certificate as name change as status just changed to "docs prepared to go to embassy"

It took them a month to review the additional information they wanted for my mom.
 
Finally I see my docs received at SFO which is really good. Not sure when will Travisa status change to Docs sent by FedEx ?

Should be a few more days..
 
@kalina and dublin...
i see the same status yaar!!! at least something changed after 14 days. it should be a week more i think... if not today, then tomorrow. now the hope has increased. i am surprised gundas' status didn't change yet he received his OCI already at travisa.

Ah! sign of relief. At least I don't have to put up with the OCI card to be re-issued until I am 50. I got 28 more years to go on the same passport!! yippie

Kalinadude: Congrats. Can you please confirm the time you got the mail from Travisa ? I have not recd the mail yet. The wait continues ...
 
Dublin, I am hoping I'd receive an email from Travisa on Monday. So far my hopes have been let down due to the snail mail processing from India.

Speakamericano : I guess the Consulate has many appl to process. After they send them to Travisa, those guys also verify the docs before they are ready for pick up. We do not know where our applications are struck ?

Also usually Travisa sends those mails only in the AM and not PM. I guess we need to wait for Monday.

Thanks Kalinadude for posting the complete status. I do have some good news. I just received an email from Travisa - "Outsourcing office has verified the OCI is processed correctly. Ready for pickup between 4:30pm and 6:00pm. If mail back, waiting for FedEx pick up and is likely to be mailed out tomorrow."

It's party time now :) We are going to India on 5/21. This is the reason why I was being so nervous. Now I guess I can relax and start the travel preparation.

Speakamericano: You may receive an email shortly. Good Luck...

speakamericano: If you do not have any travel plans immediately, you should not be anxious unlike me:) BTW I was planning to go the Consulate and Travisa on Monday to explain my situation. But now there's no need for that i guess.
 
dublin, I do not have travel plans, but I do need my US passport's copy for some other important documentation. That's why I am counting minutes. Hopefully it will be there by Monday and I can pick up by Tuesday. Anyways I don't need these documents until June, so there's plenty of time.
