OCI in Lieu of PIO
All PIO cards are valid until September 30, 2018. AFTER September 30, 2018, PIO card will be considered as an invalid travel document. Therefore, all applicants, who have not yet converted their PIO cards to OCI card, are requested to apply for OCI in lieu of PIO before September 30, 2018.
Foreign nationals can travel with valid travel document i.e. Passport and PIO Card if the date of their journey commenced ON or BEFORE September 30, 2018.
You guys rock! CKGS' help during the preparation, processing and tracking is very impressive. It helped my wife, mother-in-law and my daughter to get their OCI card over the past 3 months. In each instance, CKGS' people and systems performed admirably.
