OCI - Washington DC Tracker

Mailed my application on May 19. So far no ack date. I go to online enquiry, it says, the file has not been acknowledged yet. Also, the check I have sent with the application has not been cashed yet. Any suggestions would be great.

Thanks Koolvik7. Normally when do they cash the checks that we sent along with the application?.

Frankly, I have no idea as I never tracked this aspect. Perhaps someone else has insight into this or they had tracked when was the OCI Payment processed by the Embassy?

Hey Koolvik7 et. al.

the $295 ($275 - OCI Processing fee + $20 Mailing) can it be on one cashier check/money order? Or it has to be on separate cashier check/money order ?

thks,
 
Scroll, you can include your fees together (as one amount) just in one check/money order. Even if you had multiple applications (OCI for you or your wife + PIO for your kids), it can all be included in one check/money order.
 
In the home strectch, I will mail the passports (Indian and US) to the embassy tomorrow.

Koolvik,

By check you meant cashier check ?
No personal check accepted for OCI processing right ?
 
I suggest you buy moneyorder from post office . It's less of a hassle than a cashier's check. ( Mainly because my PO is open till 9 PM so don't have to leave work to get one)

Also it cost like $2 and some cents for the money order. Usually cashier's check's are more expensive.

I depends on where you bank - my credit union allows up to 2 free cashier's checks every month. Also, most places that sell MOs will only take cash (no credit cards or personal checks), so you have to first withdraw the money. At the bank/CU, it's automatic debit to your account.

Scanned... Progress after 3 weeks of inaction. Now it should move along very quickly (based on the other posts)...
