OCI - Washington DC Tracker

Hey, Last night when I checked the status, it said the docs will be received on 1/14 (today!). My question is with MLK Day on 17th and Sankranthi weekend etc etc, whats the holiday schedule of the Indian embassy? Is there someplace the holidays are listed for the DC consulate? Thanks,

Unless you are going there personally, it doesn't matter. We just sent out the fedex today using the express saver option. Hopefully will get there on Tuesday or Wednesday.
 
emno,

If I were you, I would send it in 2 batches, just like you sent the original application. I do not see any convincing point to make me consider sending all 4 applications in 1 packet. You have already sent 2 $20 checks....you will obviously not get 1 back....

If you are thinking of comining all 4, it may lead to more delay if you try to make THOSE people THINK.....

Just my views...
Good luck
I would do the same thing.
 
Well the passports were delivered to the embassy by Fedex today. The waiting game begins... (a new waiting game, not the old one :) )
 
I also sent by Fedex super saver and thought it would reach by wednesday only!!

Mine does not show the passport status.
 
Well there is nothing online to show that embassy recieved your PP
I got my status from FEDEX tracking of my package
Here is what I see in my delivery info
Ship date Jan 14, 2011
Delivery date Jan 17, 2011 10:13 AM
"Delivered
Signed for by: D.VALLERI "
 
That's what showed on ours, but when I saw the actual signature, it looked nothing like D. Valleri. It was just a scribble... I would guess that they will be shipped back to us next Monday or so .
 
yup that makes sense...I hope Monday or katest Tuesday of next week it all comes back!! Need to fly to India couple of weeks in March
 
I recieved my OCI stamped PP of my daughter today itself by UPS , Just 2 days for stamping !!

Thanks emno, Yes it took 2 months.
Though I could have used my daughters previous(Old) PP stamping and oci booklet for her upcoming travel, I just wanted to apply and see how misc OCI service is processed.

indiantiger1,
My dates are exactly like yours. I'm planning to go on Monday Jan 24th to DC to collect passport and OCI card. Is it safe to do that or I should wait for few more days?
 
I sent my PP on Mon - 17th and delivered on 18th. Still waiting for docs to be returned to me. Any idea if the embassy uses FedEx or UPS to send the docs back?
 
If you are staying within few hours of drive from Washington , I would suggest to give a try . If you are flying then probably it may be better to wait until the status is updated.

Hi guys..

I still in process of getting US citizenship so still long way to go.. but I am just monitoring this thread.. I was under impression that US and Indian passports should be sent alongwith the OCI application... is it not true? I see that many people have sent passports much later...
