Hello all,
Below is my experience with DC consulate.

I opt for following changes in new passport
-Address change from Indian to US address (I'm on h1b)
-Addition of my spouse name.

Aug 5th: application was sent by UPS

Aug 6th: application was received by CKGS status 'not verified'

Aug 7th: application verification is 'complete' processing of your application will continue
Full payment is received and payment receipt is sent to your register email id.
The consulate may request for further documents over and above those already submitted as per the Document Checklist.

Aug 7th: Application is 'Under process' at CKGS

Aug 11th: Application is 'In Transit' to the consulate.

Aug 11th: Application is 'Under Process' at consulate for decision making.

Aug 11th: Initiation of Police Verification Request(s) for your Passport Application File.

Aug 12th: Your Application has left the Embassy and is ‘In Transit’ to the CKGS Application Center.

Things to note:
-While making cashier cheque the banker did ask me for CKGS Washington DC address

-I did all the notaries from UPS

-Check CKGS holiday calendar before sending your application. They are close on Saturday/Sunday, therefore don't send your package on Friday they might not get it.

- After receiving police verification, I immediately informed my brother and told him to contact local police station. The police told him,first they will do the verification( by asking my neighbors) then u submit documents( copy of aadhar, passport, 2 photographs) to police station.
