Wrong Nationality Mentioned on OCI Card

Hi All,

I collected my OCI card yesterday and there is a mistake in Nationality column. Its written IND. It should say GBR. I know I should have checked each and every column carefully but I didn't.

Does anyone know what do I need to do?

Ya I sent it same day as you and mine is already printed, waiting to arrive in London.

I guess no need to panic and wait for another week at least.

Roo,

Why don't you try to check the status on the website. You will need you British passport number and GBRLI number, which they send by email once you fill in the form. Chances are your application will be in same stage as mine.

normally the approval letters are sent together, however in few cases, decisions have arrived separately, especially in case of minors as they dont need to attend ceremony.
