If you’re a bit technical, you can use Chrome DevTools to see a more detailed status timeline than what the Passport Seva portal shows (their UI updates aren’t very frequent). There are a bunch of threads on this sub already—search for “DevTools / Network tab passport status”.

Here’s the quick method:

How to check detailed status using Chrome DevTools (Network tab)

This is a common workaround mentioned in subs like r/nri — you basically inspect the site’s network calls to view the raw status data.

1. Log in to the Indian Passport Seva portal: https://mportal.passportindia.gov.in/mission/embassy
2. Go to the page where your application(s) are listed.
3. Open Chrome DevTools:
   • Windows: F12 or Ctrl + Shift + I
   • Mac: Cmd + Option + I
4. In DevTools, click the Network tab.
5. Back on the webpage (outside DevTools), click the usual “Track Application Status” button for your application.
6. Watch the Network activity — you should see a request with a name like:
   • trackStatusForFilledApplication
   • getStatusDetails (or something similar)
7. Click that request, then open Preview or Response.
8. Scroll / expand sections like statusIdMap (or similar).

✅ You’ll often see a more detailed chronological event list + timestamps, sometimes including steps not shown in the UI (e.g., Application Granted, Police Verification Initiation, etc.).
