Answer: To get any correction made in your OCI Visa record, you will need to log into the OCI Miscellaneous Services website and complete the formalities. I suggest you first read my article on how to get OCI Visa transfered to a new passport. To make changes to your OCI record, you will have to follow the same procedure as shown in the step by step instructions in the article mentioned above. The only difference would be that when it comes to selecting the type of service you require, you would select the option that says ‘Change of Personal Particulars’ instead of ‘Change of Passport Particulars’. To view the article click HERE Instead of Indian Consulate, in India you would deal with the FRRO. If you approach them, they should be able to offer assistance in completing the formalities to get your OCI record corrected.
