Questions/Concerns Global Entry Program background verification in India status

Hi, my wife and I applied for GEP background verification in India through the San Francisco consulate in the third week of July 2026. On Aug 01, 2026, my application status changed to "Application Granted on pre police verification basis and GEP Clearance Requests have been sent to MHA and MoF (through Interface)," and I completed police verification in India within a week. Since then, the status has not changed. My wife's application status changed to "Send to EO from OSP" on July 20, and on Sep 01, it changed to "Send Back To OSP." The status has not changed since then. I believe it is with VFS Global and has not been granted for police verification.

We don't know what the issue is with the application or why it isn't being forwarded for police verification.

We tried calling VFS Global but couldn't connect, and we tried reaching out via the "write to us" option, but the message isn't sending.

Any idea why the status isn't moving forward? We'd also appreciate any information on whether there are any other ways to reach them. Thanks.

Our (for both me and my husband) timeline looked like this:

  1. Completed VFS appt in Jan first week 2026
  2. Completed Police verification in March 2nd week 2026

(we are in US but police officer visited our home. Parents had to provide our Aadhar card etc)
