How come such a large difference? the USD to CAD conversion rate is not that high.
Any thoughts??
The fee is not based on currency conversion of USD to CAD or INR to CAD. It is the fees that Indian High Commission/consulate will accept in local currency.
What it is based on, I do not know. OCI/PIO fee is more than what is for Canadian citizenship and they will not even reply to your emails and faxes.
The Ministry of Home affairs web site states - "US $ 275 or equivalent in
local currency". From what I heard (don't remember the source), it's upto the Consulate within each country to decide upon the fees.
Anybody knows how long it takes to get OCI card if somebody applies today? The indian consulate keep the canadian passport for the particular time frame? Thanks

Thanks. The Toronto consulate web site says
"N.B. Minor children are NOT eligible for OCI in case both parents are Indian nationals"
In my case, my son is born here (10 months old) and I am going to get my citizenship. My wife wants to stay with indian passport and we want atleast one parent of the child to be indian citizen.
In this case, based upon the above statement Is my son eligible for OCI? (I am thinking of sending our OCI applications together).
