OCI pending to 2 months now at Wash DC. Still Under Process
Hi All. I could use some help. My OCI has been pending for 2 months at Washington DC embassy and government status still shows "under process". Any tips on what I could do from here? I know VFS will be useless but will any other contact info help?

Need Help: OCI card application stuck in "Under Process" for 3 months at SFO
I am looking for help in finding out what happened to my mother in law's application for OCI. The application was filed on August 1st week. The status of the application has been "Under Process" from august 14th. I have tried calling VFS, calling the consulate, emailing and tweeting. I have also tweeted to the Indian embassy at DC. None of the approaches have been successful and I have not been able to reach anyone who can help. VFS told me that the application is out of their system, so they cannot help. Has anyone been in a similar situation? Is there anyway to contact someone at the consulate in San Francisco to find out the status of the application?

10/12- Acknowledged by VFS
10/13 - VFS Processed application and is in transit to to India (I guess all the documentation was fine and nothing was missing)

11/12- status on the government website changed to “Processed” and “printing completed”. Enroute to Atlanta.
11/15 - stated getting emails from VFS about my application had been reviewed and card will be dispatched using the courier service i opted for.

OCI application stuck (SFO) since August at Under-Process
I had applied for a OCI card after receiving my US Passport early August. The tracker at https://ociservices.gov.in/statusEnqury has been stuck at Under process for over 2 months:

I emailed the consulate, but did not get any response. Calling VFS did not help either. Worried if my application got lost. Has anyone faced a similar situation?
