Whatever CIC asks you for, send it. Even if you've sent it before, send it again!

Don't worry! My status hasn't changed either but they've been working on my husband's file :) We're next!

No, we sent everything by courier! Gets there much faster than post (approx. 3 days).

That's awesome! Sounds like going to the embassy is the way to go! (If you can of course)!

I hope they would be! I feel I've been very patient :)

I received the additional document I needed so I will be sending it to Ankara today! I hope that it is a speedy process after this!!!! :P

Congratulations, Cu-tee! AMAZING news :)

Sorry if I confused you! I am sponsoring my hubby and he lives in Canada... that's why he needed a clearance :D

Well my hubby spoke with someone that works at the embassy ( a friend of a friend). They just ensured us that was all we were missing and once we got the clearance to them, they would begin processing our application. I think that is fairly good news! You're next missy!!! Enjoy the rest of your...

Does your wife live with you in Canada? My husband lives here in Canada... if you live anywhere for more than 6 months (in the past 10 years I believe), you require a clearance from that country was what I was told.

Hi, and welcome! Here are the timelines. Feel free to add yourself to the spreadsheet. Online it says it's an average of 16 months for approval but many people receive their visas in less time. Ankara Visa Office Timeline spreadsheet http://goo.gl/WBjGFi Dynamic Charts...

Well he needed to send a Canadian Police Clearance because he lives in Canada. I wish I had known that initially (I got very angry with out lawyer because his assistant helped gather the documents and missed this) but it should only set us back about 2 weeks. I am not too worried about that.

It does take longer if you don't submit your passport in person. I wouldn't worry. If they've asked for a passport and it says decision made, he's probably approved for PR visa :)

Looks like lots of good news on this forum! They have now started working on our application in Ankara! Hopefully they will request a passport soon! Insh'allah!

They are working on applications. I have heard from them twice myself. Once they sent me a letter asking for an additional document and once I spoke with someone who actually processes visas. It looks like they are currently working on March/April applications.

Did anyone else get an email from Ankara to send additional documents? If so, how long was it from when you sent the documents until you got a call for an interview/to send in your passport?

So they want both Turkish (which we sent) and Canadian because he lives in Canada.

So I guess this is sort of good news ;D Ankara just requested we need to send them a police clearance (which we have already done so). In spite of this, this is good because they must be working on our application :D :D :D

I am hoping everyday that I hear something!! I know! We are the next ones to say, we got the email!!! It is so exciting! When are you leaving Turkey? I hope you hear something while you are there! It would be like a good luck trip :) So exciting to share that experience with your husband!!!!

Good point, but being optimistic will make the process of waiting a lot less stressful! I am not in your shoes as my husband is here with me in Canada but we are optimistic everyday that he will get the email from Ankara to get his PR status. Yes, we've waited for what seems like eternity but in...
