RE-OCI collection

Dear Superior/Board members,

I have applied for OCI and processed and back to Birmingham. I have sent my Original British passport+other document and they have reached at Birmingham on 3/12/13. Does any one know how many days takes time to my passport and OCI card back at home? for your information I have used Royal mail special delivery prepaid envelop for to and from destination.

please does any one know what is the time scale? (today 5/12/13 no sign of tracking my post)

Thank you in advance

Did you make a note of the special delivery ref# on the return envelopes?

Hi! samkma, Thanks for your msg. yes I have sent covering letter with original British passport as well as OCI acknowledgement printout and Royal mail special delivery prepaid envelop with my returned address but still up to now no sign about dispatched from HCI B'gham even I have mail to HCI b'gham and even no reply from there- bit worried because they not responding even Birmingham office Oci dept. telephone 0121 236 3109 always on hold or busy so I cant ask to even any one? I have already booked my tickets for 15th december

Hi There,

Did you get your documents back from Birmingham embassy

I am worried about posting my foreign passport to birmingham by post. I need to travel by 1st Feb 2014

Thanks

Hi! There,

Yeah, I have received my documents back safely. If you send pre-paid royal-mail envelop with your returning address HCI OCI dept. will send you back within 10-15 working days I was worried when I had sent my original passports & documents but this process is normal and wait patiently is most medicine.

Regards

Hi Gj6ab5657,

If more than one member of a family have sent their passports for OCI stamping, do they need to send as many envelopes or will just one envelope suffice?

Thanks.

No-Just one pre-paid sign-for envelop is enough for family members, mine was 2+2 submitted in only one envelop with covering latter. and all done now.

Regards

Thanks gj6ab5657.

When sending passports for OCI stamping for a family, all passports and docs can be sent together with ONLY 1 prepaid special delivery envelope (SDE) for returning passports.

Last week we sent 3 passports for stamping with 3 SDE and they were all returned in one SDE and the other two SDE were also returned in post along with the passports.

yes, only required one envelop no need to send individual for each person but in your case if you returned to post office non used envelopes they will returned your money because you haven't used yet
