OCI Card Online Status Query

[sbal]

Hi, I've applied for the OCI card for my daughter. I submitted the application in August and the Embassy in Delhi received my application on 22-Aug. I waited a month and I checked the online status yesterday and it said the OCI card had been printed on 16-Sept but the dispatch date from Delhi and the received at Birmingham date were blank. When I checked the online status this morning it had gone back to 'under process'.

Has this happened to anyone else who can advise me on what I can do.

Thanks.

I applied for OCI re-issue on 16th-Sep-2019 (just this week). The status on 18th-Sep-2019 was "Processed" (OCI Miscellaneous application are processed in a week as per the timeline posted by other members).

But, when I checked again on 19th-Sep-2019, the status turned "Under Process"

To my surprise, I checked today, the status is showing "No such record found".

No idea, whats going on.

I wrote an Email to HCI London (inf.london@mea.gov.in).

They replied me (within hour! impressed!) saying that the OCI is ready and asked me to provide the EMail as a conformation and follow VFS collection procedure.
Fingers crossed, whether VFS will give me a tough time with an Email printout.

Exactly the same thing happened to me. I too wrote to HCI London and got a prompt reply in email, confirming that my children's OCI cards were ready and to take the email printout to VFS.

I did that this morning and there was no problem at VFS Hounslow. They collected the passports and told me the new cards+passports should be back with me within a week. Fingers crossed !
