Hello Guys,

Do I need to apply for renunciation of Indian passports first and then apply for OCI?

Or application for OCI will also include the renunciation process?

Received the OCI today. Quite a ride from getting a PR, migrating to Australia, becoming a citizena and then getting an OCI.

Hi Ratnesh, my OCI application status was changed to PROCESSED on 05-May-2022, does this mean that OCI has been dispatched? or is there a OCI status DISPATCHED? Also when the OCI is dispatched will there be some sort of email with courier / post tracking ID ?

You can submit both (OCI and renunciation of Indian passport ) same time . No need to do one after the other.

Seeking advice. I applied OCI for my toddler few weeks ago and are planning to travel to India in April. In case we don't receive OCI before our travel, can we travel on a tourist visa while the OCI application is active? Heard that it is issued in less than 2 days time.

Hi @Mithung

Can you please advise how did you go on this ? Did you receive it before travel or you had to take tourist visa?

Thanks

I have applied for OCI and Indian passport together and after 6 weeks have only received surrender certificate along with OCI.

My question is, are we supposed to get surrender certificate and indian passport back if we submit the application together?

Hi , After sending the application on post, how many days later did the credit card charged ?

After 5 days they deducted the amount (30/03/2022)

From what I have heard, you would get your indian passport back and it says cancelled.
I am not 100% sure though

Hi prodigy, if you don't mind me asking when did you apply OCI and what's your status?

Hey Achak,

How do you track application status on GOI?
I am only tracking it using the link that VFS sent on email.

it always shows" Your application is received and under assessment at the High Commission/Consulate General of India."
