    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Well you don't really need anymore since it's almost been a year already and they told you it's in a security check. My timeline is similar, we applied on June 1st then it's been transferred to Ankara on August 3rd. Since the interview in December we haven't heard anything:( notes showed that...

    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    That's great! Hopefully they will reply to your lawyer. My lawyer also wrote to Ankara 2 weeks ago but they still haven't responded :( Ankara does have a poor communication with applicants, they only contact us when they need something in order to proceed with the application. Yes, maybe people...

    strength2 Great letter! I just really hope this will somehow influence them :) One year will be passed for us in 2 weeks too :( Yes, strength2 is correct, 36 months means you comply to be financially responsible for your husband for 3 years. Did anything change under security for you? (pages...

    Getting Married In Russia

    I see, so you're thinking of applying through Moscow correct? Because you can also apply through Warsaw which should be better actually) We wanted to apply through Warsaw, but since Azerbaijan was involved, our file was sent to Ankara. Like I said, we did it in a different city in Russia and...

    Getting Married In Russia

    Just to clarify, did embassy in Moscow tell you that you must get your marriage certificate in Moscow only? Because we got our marriage certificate in a different city in Russia, translated it, notarized it and that's all :) I don't think it matters where you get your marriage certificate as...

    mona_momeni Congratulations, that's great news! :) No news yet, they didn't even respond to my lawyer's inquiry... But I'm still trying to stay positive and really hoping May will be the last month of waiting! It has to end before summer starts!

    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    Seems like it doesn't matter to them because all of our husbands been assigned to an extensive screening. Otherwise it wouldn't take that long :( I agree with strength2, most likely our native countries have already contributed and it's just Turkey that is doing its own database search or...

    Ankara Visa Office Applicants Check in here! :)

    There are different types of security but unfortunately we don't know how they select which security screening they will be doing and seems like our husbands go through a more extensive screening :( https://www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/esc-src/protection-safeguarding/niveaux-levels-eng.html I just...

    It has to be the last month of waiting! This just can't take any longer! Otherwise it's very unfair.

    This information is outdated but I'll still share it. I found a CSIS Annual Report 2008-2009 and there was a Turn-Around table in days for Security check. In the year of 2008-2009 turn around time for security check was only 95 days but in 2007 it was 78 days, so you can see such an increase in...

    Your emotions are taking over :) Not really, there were many people who didn't get updated but they got PPR:) Words can't describe how hard it is to wait, but it's almost over..just a tiny bit more patience and we will be rewarded)

    The main point is that we don't know how far we are in the process, maybe we are just step away from PPR, we don't know because they don't update us. I believe it's almost over and my husband will receive PPR very soon and so is everyone else, just keep on praying and stay positive:) I agree...
