Not sure if this post is allowed as it is tangentially related to my US immigration. Please feel free to remove if found to be irrelevant.

 

This is a question to former Indian citizens who moved to US from Canada as greencard holders, gained Canadian citizenship after moving to US, and then surrendered their Indian passports in US through VFS - Could you please advise what the stamp that CGI put in your passport says?

I surrendered mine to CGI NY through VFS and they put a stamp that states “as holder acquired USA citizenship.” I of course never claimed this, but this appears to have been done in error by CGI. The word USA is part of the stamp and so it maybe that it is not an error, and they have no other stamp so they put that for everyone.

Anyway only realised this error 9 months after I got that stamp. I contacted VFS and they asked to contact CGI NY which I have also done, but a week has passed with no response.

Could you please advise what your stamp says?

It’s kind of scary because it looks like I claim to be a US citizen. I am also worried about how this will affect my OCI application.
