I don't know. My situation is different and I had to submit a different set of documents.VFS Helpline told me to also submit the cancelled indian passport, is that necessary?
Could anyone advise please?NOG wrote:Wondering if anyone can confirm this -
Is it possible to hand over the foreign passport for the OCI sticker at a different VFS Centre to where the application was originally made? For example, if the application was made in person as VFS Paddington, it is possible to hand over the passport in person for the sticker at a different VFS Centre i.e. Goswell or Hounslow?
Thanks.
You are not alone. My application was processed on 20 May 2015, but not yet dispatched from MOIA (OCI ) NEW DELHI.jain208 wrote:I have attached a screenshot of the status messages to give you a clear idea? I will appreciate any help on this.

Based on the available time-scale, it takes about 6 weeks to get OCI sticker on your passport from the date of application.crazyvish wrote:I am planning to apply for OCI end of June. Go holiday in the 1st week of July until 1st week of Sept. Do you think I am okay to submit the Passport after my return?
It appears that there is an issue between the MOIA and the courier company which handles the OCI card delivery, which delays the OCI dispatch process.cfdman wrote:You are not alone. My application was processed on 20 May 2015, but not yet dispatched from MOIA (OCI ) NEW DELHI.
I don't know why such an in-ordinate delay, as I could see that for lot of people it just takes 2 to 3 days for the OCI to get it dispactched.
Is anyone else on the same boat?

Normally it will be available on the tracking website on the next working day, but my son's application took 2 days. You have to use the British passport number and the GBRL number.davster wrote:Hi Guys,
I made my OCI application on 04/06/14 at VFS Paddington. I've tried to check my status online but unfortunately it comes up with "no records found".
Could someone please advise if the file no to use is the one starting with "GBRL" and also roughly how long does it take to get a status on the website?
Cheers

Thank you for the reply Jobin. Is it the GBRL no on the application form or the one on the barcode sticker that VFS put on the royalmail envelope? In my case the GBRL no on the application form is different to the one VFS have generated...jobinscaria wrote:Normally it will be available on the tracking website on the next working day, but my son's application took 2 days.

It's is the one on the application form. If it's not available by COP Monday, contact them. If you ring them they can check applications just by passport number.davster wrote:Thank you for the reply Jobin.
