Hey, I am in Ankara and just got back from the VAC. The experience you can expect: 1- I went to the embassy instead of the VAC, good news: the VAC is 5 minutes from the embassy. Also THE VAC is underground, so you have to go down a ramp and make a right to see it. Do Not be scared of getting...

KingC, you're right it's a little expensive but I got a 30% discount from hotels.com for labour day so it was a little better than normal. I mainly did it cause I normaly pay a lot for hotels cause I want to enjoy my sleep lol I have a n issue when I don't sleep in my own bed :(

keeponwaiting22, I'm not sure if you checked, but hotels.com is having a site wide 30% labour day sale.

Hey, The Ankara Hilton - Which is the hotel I'll be staying at- is a 10 minutes walk from the embassy.

keeponwaiting22 is absolutely correct. it's AGAINST Canadian Law to send legal documents via MAIL. CanadaPost will reject it! Do not sent it via DHL/courier services, chances are they will send it back and your 30 days notice will be over by the time you get your passport back.

To be honest, my wife was going to do that but as there are a lot of complications with that, for example your passport being stolen & ... Also there are lots of rumors our there. So it was safer for us to go with my wife and bring her here. It does cost a little more but it’s the safest way out...

K, so I'm flying on Ankara on next week. I specifically wanted to avoid the long weekend. They say it takes a maximum of 4 days. Oh also, I just found out that there might be a $28.00 visa fee which has to be paid either by money order or bank draft. I'm a little worried about this. Anybody else...

aribs, i just updated my file. it should be showing up now.

Thanks Mrs.KOR. Thanks She.D, I received the email this morning stating that we can either 1- go to the embassy or 2-have an authorized person pick it up, however it does take 4 days for them to give us the Visa -Stamp it-. I'll be leaving next week for Ankara. Keeponwaiting22 - Congrats to...

OMA I JUST GOT MY VISA TOO.... CONGRATS KEEPONWAITING22...

Thanks Mrs.KOR, that's so sweet of you, all 4 of us are waiting for some good news. It's always nice to spend some time with your spouse. I haven't seen my wife in 7 months and it's getting tough. I just hope they give us some good news. Labour day is coming up and the embassy will be closed in...

Thanks She.D and keeponwaiting22 Let's hope we hear more good news soon.

Anytime, Just to update you guys, my wife's status just got changed to In Process.

keeponwaiting22, NO they don't ask any further questions... My best friend's wife has been here for 2 years and not once they have been contacted. Just to confirm I asked a few other people at work and none of them have been questioned. I think your coworker's favorite movie is "The Proposal" lol

She.D thank you so much, I've been checking my spam folder every week and I go through the folder every week to make sure I don't have anything from CIC. I think it's a good practice as we are all waiting for those emails :D I just hope the email comes soon, I've been away from my spouse for...

Thanks so much keeponwaiting22. Hey guys, off topic question, if you get the good news, do you have to go to ankara to get the visa stamped into your passport or can you UPS/FedEX/DHL it to the embassy?

Thanks Keeponwaiting22, I just registered for it too. How long did it take for them to email you the notes?

Thanks She.D, Good to hear Mrs.KOR. Get a sun tan while you're there... lol Oh so I got an update. My tax girl put me on the tax forms as single but the CRA sent me a letter asking to confirm my marital status. I know :( I sent a letter but they said that it could take another month. Lucky me...

Hopefully you will hear good news soon She.D, I'm yet to get that message... I'm still on Application received :(

Woohoo... Thank God!
