    Applicants for the OCI card must submit their original documents for verification. You need to submit your documents to the Indian mission or post, or the FRRO, Foreign Regional Registration Office. After you have completed your online application for the OCI card, you need to submit the supporting documents or necessary photocopies to the Indian mission or post for verification.

      I have also submitted all the original documents for my OCI card to the jurisdictional FRRO centres. After the successful verification of my OCI card original documents, I have waited for the processing of my OCI card, and got my OCI in a few weeks after submission of the application.
