I know the OCI does not expire. Its a lifelong visa. But how ...

RBS, Chennai

These guys never respond back. Not only RBS, almost all the companies in India does not seem to respond to resumes you upload to their career portals. Only way it works is through referrals. You need to place the resume on the HR person's desk thru a contact that you have inside the company. I am ...

OCI and Surrender Certificate

I got OCI in Feb and travelled to India and back in April. No one asked to see my indian passport.
Everywhere I only had to show my US PP and OCI card.
But what I dont understand is, they would have put the "Cancelled" stamp on your indian PP while issuing the OCI. Why is it not so in your case.

Shipping v. buying diapers & infant milk formula in India (Mumbai specifically)

Diapers are really of worst quality in India. What is surprising is that the brand is still Huggies, Pampers etc. same as here but the quality is way too low. If you are shipping things to India then get sufficient quantity of diaper boxes from costco. It is worth it. Not much experience with the ...

Hope ...
