You are doing this wrong and it's costing you $400 to $500 in delays and most OCI applicants don't even realize that they're making this mistake. Let us quickly tell you the biggest mistake which you should avoid while filing out for your OCI application form. Mistake number 1, inconsistent information. Your name, date of birth, place of birth must match what's written exactly in your passport. Even a tiny mismatch in the information can cause tons of delays. Mistake number 2, we have bad or incorrect photographs and signatures. If the size, background, or resolution— anything of the one is wrong, VFS will immediately reject your application. Mistake number 3: missing required documents. People forget their address proof, employment proofs, or upload the wrong PDFs, and this causes a lot of delays. Mistake number 4: people usually enter their incorrect passport details or forget to sign the required sections of Part A and B of the OCI card form. And finally, applicants do forget that their OCI card application form has to be submitted within 90 days of filing it out.
