Issues with Indian Passport renewal via VFS Global

Thanks for the update. Did you hear anything else on police verification? My application is showing as initiated for printing but havent got any communication on police verification.

Nothing further on police verification. I donā€™t think police verification was actually needed, I just acted prematurely. The email from the govt. email indicated that if the police verification does not happen within 3 weeks, contact the local police department. Hopefully, the passport will be mailed soon.

it is very slow at embassy/consulate also. they received my application on 11/16 tatkal. same status nothing moved in last 3 days

I applied for tatkal & yesterday during USA hrs status got changed to ā€œPassport is printed and will be delivered shortly.ā€ā€¦ Later in the evening got automated email for police verification.

Police verified during their day at my Indian address.

I still see same status till now.

Hoping to get passport by tomorrow

Thanksā€¦Nobody is residing at my Indian address (its our flat which is closed). My parents are not living in same town so not sure how the police verification will happen even if police visits my Indian address.
Anyone else in similar situation please your experiences.

Next status is " Passport is printed and will be delivered shortly. "

hi shreekantaā€¦
did u send the application too along with ur missing document?I forgot to put return label with documents so what else should i put along with return label?Thnks

HI AKATH
I donā€™t think so ā€¦because I got the same email from vfs even I forgot to put the return label along with the documents.2 days has passed but still i dint get any new email from vfs.

@IndianInUsa

Police asked the copy of the same document i provided [my Aadhar copy] plus my spouse Aadhar copy.

As far as i know, they check with neighbors if no one at homeā€¦ If any of your neighbour can help in getting their contact# {Officer come for verification} & share with you / your parentā€¦ you can close that

***** :money_mouth_face: I hope you already know what extra you have to provide :money_mouth_face:*****

@Venkata_Dhanush_Redd Did you receive any acknowledgement mail yet from VFS?

@jigar.se Any further progress on your application?

Anybody who sent documents to NY ICAC and whose documents got delivered on 11/13, received acknowledgment/ any email from VFS?

Mine is forwarded to the consulate for processing.

Oh! good to hear that
I havenā€™t heard anything from them yet

Thanks a lotā€¦Yes I do get ā€œextraā€ :slight_smile:

@srini2013 - You were correctā€¦current status - ā€œPassport has been printedā€.
Did you get any police verification notification?

I received email around 4 PM, so there is a chance that you may get. Also, doesnā€™t look like things are consistent at VFS, so if not today, then probably in next couple days.

Not yet. Mine is delivered on 11/13. But didnā€™t get any notification

Fingers crossed :slight_smile:
Letā€™s see

Who signed the Fedex note. Mine is signed by D.SoNiYA

Yeah, same for me too
