Within 60 days of the application, if there is no adverse information available against the applicant. If any adverse information is available against the applicant, the decision to grant or otherwise is taken within 3 months. Once the online status shows as granted and reached CGI New York (also the file No. will be updated in Arrival details of OCI Card) please bring or send applicant’s passport/s (don’t forget to send your original U.S. passport , PIO card and mailing charges ) for pasting the Universal visa sticker and the passport will be returned along with the OCI Card. In some cases after granting also the application is pending because of the improper photograph. Once you see a file number above the reference number. it means the application has reached at our office and it is registered from our side.
