I was planning to apply for an OCI card through the Indian Embassy in Houston, Texas. Is anyone aware of the application process? I noticed on the Houston Indian Embassy website that, as a spouse of a foreign national, I will have to undergo an interview. What do I need to prepare for the interview, and how long will the interview take?
