OCI online application difficulties

[bbkaran]

Hi all,

It appears that I am the only one experiencing this difficulty:

Filled in Form-A for myself. When I chose to register for the family members and clicking the appropriate button for their relationship with me, I don't see any button like "submit" or "next" to progress to the next pages. I tried this with both firefox and IE.

I must be missing something obvious. Please help.

PS:
If I choose "NO" to register another family member, I then ave a "Submit" button to move on to next step.

the online form has some browser compatility issues.
just hit ENTER and you'll move to the next page.

Hi,

Please reduce the font size from 100% to 75%

Thanks for the tip. This does work. It showed the other relevant buttons.

Another difficulty though is that I entered all details for four family members for form-A and put in additional details for Form-B too (I think). When I pressed the submit button, I was taken to the main page. As if everything i entered disappeared into a black-hole. Any ideas?

The temporary application number search does not help either. It crashes after a while hanging. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Okay, I now understood your problem

I am exactly in the same state last week

Have you had any idle time before pressing submit?

You can just discard the application and fill in a fresh one, because submission of part a is not a completed application.

However, until HCI/CGI acknowledge the application it is not complete

So you are good to fill another one, make sure you dont leave any idle time meaning, being away for more then 2 mins from the action

[bbkaran]

thank you very much.

Does the acknowledgment come through the email?

I have not received any so I suppose I can fill new one.

Another question: Should I complete form-A and form-B online? Or just form-A online and print the rest.

Thanks

No it doesnt come through email. it is a long waiting game if submitted in Post, roughly 1-2 months and until then you have to watch

Submit both Part A and Part B online, however, it doesnt allow you to submit part B manually

[bbkaran]

thanks again.

what about the photos? In part-a there appears to be an option to upload photo. what happens if you upload and what is the consequence if you dont? would uploading photo makes it any simpler?

I skipped the upload

When i submitted in person, i asked the counter officiall and thy said fine

[bbkaran]

Unfortunately, I still have no luck with the online application form. After several attempts I thought I was getting somewhere. In the last attempt I filled form-a for all four but the summary page showed only for three of my family members (mine is not shown).

In another attempt I managed to get to Form-B where the system crashed complaining "object error".

I have so far tried about 20 times. Is this normal.

I am concerned if the system will think I am a robot try to to attack.

Thanks
