OCI Card SFO Processing Time
Applied OCI for my son on 21st August,2017. Received OCI Card on 2nd Oct,2017. Process went smooth(except that i missed to send one document copy, so it extended the process by 3-4 days).

Also, i noticed most of the time goes in the courier services.
Like for me, i sent the original documents on Friday, CKGS received it on Monday(delaying 2 days because of UPS guidelines). Again the original card dispatch from India on 22nd Sep and document received at SFO on 29th Sep(> 7 days).
Again the card was dispatched from CKGS to my address on Friday and i received it on Monday(delaying 2 days).
