      This is tricky . When you submit OCI , you would need to send your US passport as well , which is usually returned in just few days. Also all the applications are verified at US Embassy (based on your address) and sent to india for printing the OCI . When applied from US , it takes 3-4 days for them to return the US passport and 35-40 days to get the OCI , assuming that you have all they wanted. Also Fedex / UPS works great with in US . If you had to file the application from india , any thing can go haywire & i dont think ckgs would own any responsibility .

        Please search this forum. There are answers. You need to apply at the regional FRRO. Go in person and submit the application. That works best in India.
