Hi
Me and my wife are indian citizens, We have a daughter born in US on may 2002, when i was on H1 Visa. We moved back to india in 2003 with my daughter having entry visa for 5 years on US passport.

I was staying in bangalore when we arrived, So we registered in FRRO bangalore. we are currently in hyderabad, Do we have to register here?

The passport and visa are about to expire in few months. Can we renew visa/ get new PIO card/apply for OCI in hyderabad?

Please advise on the available options for me to renew the visa/PIO/OCI card.
I have following questions in mind.:confused:
Which one would be better?
how is it different?
What is the process?
Time and fee requirements?

Please anybody help us out...
Thanks

Here is the link http://www.immihelp.com/nri/piocard/

Your daughter is not eligible to apply for OCI. Your best bet is to apply for her PIO card which is valid for 15 years.
