I have done it for my son.

You don't need to send original passport.

What I did is:

Notorized copy for both parents passport along with US visa.
Notorized copy for my Son's USa passport.
Form duly filled up you can download from the indian consulate website..I dowloaded from SF website.
Money order.

It is very easy and will take 2 weeks to get it.

I hope this helps.

PIO card processing time at the NY consulate?

I wonder how long the processing for the PIO card takes at the NY consulate. I have a trip to India planned mid June. I would therefore need the card before then.
