OCI in lieu of PIO without original PIO card submission(CGI SF)
Since I had an existing travel plan with my kids in June, I cant submit my kids original PIO card to the consulate as a part of OCI in lieu of PIO application. I am planning to keep a photo copy and a covering letter with this reason in my application. I can take this ORIGINAL PIO cards to the CGI office on return of my kids to US(in August). Does this work? I know that the best case should be my application would be delayed till I submit the original PIO cards, which is correct. But what are the other potential issues for this idea? I just want to file the application IN TIME(before June 10th) as these inconsistent rumors are floating around that thats the last date for using PIO card.

Any expert ideas?
Thanks.
