    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Arman congrats!!! So how did you get in contact with the visa office? Did they respond to your email finally? I know that forum member Pooya_NP used an agency to send his wife's passport to Ankara from Iran. You can message him and get the details

    Another member here Arman has the same issue. He posted here a few days ago. Just take a look at the previous pages. You can send an enquiry to the Visa Office or ASAP contact your MP. You can explain your situation to your MP and he/she can contact the visa office on your behalf.

    hm65 I see that you are also an April applicant just like me. Has your status changed to "in process"? On the spreadsheet you are still on sponsorship approval.

    I received my GCMS notes on Monday and saw that in my notes. FYI, if you think of ordering your notes in the future here is a good source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_E_dq_uLVo It costs 5$ and you get the notes in 30 days.

    They gave us 30 days to respond. But we sent the police certificate right away. They asked for it on Sept 4th, and it was received by them on Sept 8th. From GCMS notes I see that they acknowledged the receipt of the police certificate on Sept 11th. The paper file location still shows "DOCS -...

    We received our files GCMS notes yesterday. Criminality and Security assessments still haven't been started yet! Why why why, I really don't understand.

    What date was the decision given? Is it just recently? Did the embassy contacted you by email or mail before when they asked for the RPRF?

    Additional Family Information [IMM 5406]

    Yes, you need to fill out this form regardless if those people are in your application or not. I believe this form is a part of the background checks. So you need to mention your spouse, mother, father, siblings and kids (if applicable)

    I have never heard of such a case so far. Here is a helpful thread to read: http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/landing-in-canada-t252661.0.html So I guess the embassy does give landing papers with your passport

    That's good, at least you will know where your passport is :) Hmmm does the embassy give the COPR with the passport??? I thought they just print the "immigrant visa" and when you land to Canada, the immigration officer at the airport gives you the COPR. They usually staple it to your passport...

    To my knowledge VAC sends the passport to the embassy in Ankara. Once the visa is printed on the passport the embassy sends it back to the VAC and VAC forwards it back to you. Your husband as a Turkish citizen will need a visa to enter the United States. Having a PR card does not give the...

    Paper File location says: "DOCS - Documents requested" They requested an updated police certificate in September. And from the notes I see that they confirm receiving it, they added the police certificate to our file on Sept 11. And since then there is no news, seems like our file is abandoned...
