i was in the same situation like you. don't give anything extra which is not asked for. since it is in your sar, the same info is on their computer. they didn't ask me a single question about it. the only thing i did - i made a speadsheet showing the date of each application's (extension) made, the ...
suppose you apply oci for minor, it would cost £165
whereas if you apply for pio for minor, it is £110 and then to convert to oci you will charged £18.
Mallikz, I agree with IMBerocca. I rang HCi twice and spoke to two different people last week and I also checked the FAQ in mha website, it clearly says that ONLY FOR MINORS - if a minor like to get OCI then one of the parents should be eligible for OCI, that means one of the parent must be holding ...
peejay, the first line of the 2nd paragraph of the notice mentions that (though didn't mention the word 'before PIO/OCI appl'). I have spoken to HCI and they told that it has started only from 21st sept 09. but the funny thing is that the appl form for surrendering passport is not on the website yet...
lullaby, I came to know that there is a form to complete (which could be obtained at the outside counter) for surrendering passport. The form is not available on the website. is that right? if you know any link for the form plese let me know. Also, if we provide them a self-addressed envelope do the...
Just to add, vinny is one of knowlegable person (if not the most) of this forum. Therefore have faith in him. Do as he said. Yes you can apply for your daughter's citizenshipn as prescibed by John. I followed the same process and am going to receice my son's British passport next week.
I came to know from www.hcilondon.net website that from last week in order to apply for PIO or OCI one needs to surrender his/her valid Indian passport and then the Indian High Commission will issue a surrender certificate within a week. Until you get the surrender certificate one can’t apply for ...

be there around 9/9.30am you should be ok. I would prefer to apply in person then there is less chance of passport being lost. also, they will send your new passport within three working days. not only that they will just take the photocopy of your current passport (though you need to carry with you...

Tech, For god’s sake please don’t give wrong information. The rule is either the applicant or his/her parents or grandparents was holding Indian passport after Jan 26, 1950, then the applicant is eligible to apply for OCI. Give the appropriate link for OCI application. http://hcilondon.in/oci.ph...
Myself and my wife (both have ILR) are going to apply for Schengen Visa at French Embassy, London in person . I have got few queries. 1. If I attend the interview and carry all the paperwork for myself and my wife would that be ok. I mean if my wife does not attend the interview would that be a prob...
I got ILR on the basis of 10yrs LR 9yrs -student 1yr-PSW I got my ILR only a few weeks ago at Cryodon PEO. and no questions asked. I didn't take any solicitor. Therefore PSW is counted for 10yrs LR. I am not sure why ask the same question again and again. If anyone has any more question I am happy t...
chakku71, I don't understand the point why you both could have OCI and not your child.OCI is more or less similar to Indian passport. It does not matter whether study in India or in UK. Also, rules are changing now and then and who knows they the rules may be complicated in future. Also, after havin...
