Wowwww Washington embassy seems to be in a hurry to clean up their tables with approved OCI cards.

I had my OCI approved around end of December, 2010, but I did not send my US PP because I had made my travel plans around that time.

Here's my OCI stamping time:
Sent US PP for OCI stamping on 3/14/2011 via USPS Priority Mail
Package received by Washington Embassy on 3/16/2011
Received my US PP with OCI stamp and OCI card via UPS Overnight Shipment on 3/18/2011

Cricket = Insect

How are things looking for u_kno_me?


I doubt any work has been done in the Govt. of India offices between the Pakistan v.s India Semi-final all the way thru the World Cup Final. Add another 2/3 days for celebration and excuse for not working. The real window is another 4 days before the IPL drama starts.

Ram Navami April 12
Good Friday April 22

Govt. of India Gazetted Holidays.

It's Ram Navami in India
= No status change willl happen
 
thanks for the update.......

I thought DC is fater than other consulates....but looks like everyone is sleeping........
i agree ...more delays might happen due to holidays.........
 
If I was in Govt. of India and everyone was complaing about delays - My excuse would be that all applications are undergoing the "Name Check" / "Security Check" phase.

;)
 
Unfortunately, this is the phase where even Travisa cannot help. We are truly at the mercy of the babus. Can't complain to any one. The deepest, darkest, blackest hole!
 
"Ask the embassy" open forum discussion

You guys forgot Dr. Baba Saheb Ambedkar Jayanti HOLIDAY on April 14, 2011. I agree, Govt. holidays cause delays and frustration too.

This might help raise your voice and concerns to the right officials.
