Hi,

I am not sure what is the current process but it is worth to write to HCI London .

I noticed recently that Sushma Swaraj's twitter account is actively monitored hence it is worth to highlight on her twitter account incase it is a genuine case of money making by VFS.

In my understanding :

1 ) He cannot stay in India beyond expiry of his visitor visa.
2) Immigration officer will ask to produce his OCI book when he leaves from India, If he hasn't then he may encounter some issues.

You can send your query to Shetty B in MEA to get clarification.

you just have to continue to live like other Indian lives. No need for registration or police station visit.

Just don't buy land, stand in election or apply for president of India's post

They will hold his OCI booklet for that long, Don't worry.

just for safer side, Ask your husband to email HCI London explaining his situation. I am sure you will get positive feedback.

good luck

Hi,
Please can you advise when one can visit UK after end of 6 month stay ?

Can family member go to home country and return to UK after 10days ?

Kindly advise

In my opinion, everything is important on OCI booklet.
Do you have copy of your submitted application form ? if yes then check spelling there first before contacting HCI telling their mistake

regards

No they will not accept. You better be safe than sorry..
Complete fresh application. If you have an appointment booked. take both old and new form together, show old forma and appointment letter for entry and explain at counter, Hope they will happy to help

I cannot see any advise on appointment booking on HCI hence just walk-in

You can do either, however I pasted photo after taking printout- HCI accepted it
good luck

You will likely to see long queues again as OCI and Passport applicants are required to book an appointment prior to visit.
I will advise you to check link below- go half an hour before opening time, you should be OK.
