Hi everyone,

I noticed that there is no active thread for Ankara VO here re: spousal sponsorship.
All those who applied to Ankara were sharing their info in a thread originally created for Damascus office back in 2010!
It's 2012 and many things have changed so let us have our discussions on a new thread that doesn't have thousands of useless pages...

The main focus here will be on applicants who have applied in 2012 after Ankara office became a regional office dealing with other counties including Iran (following closure of Damascus office). So if you file was directly sent to Ankara from the start and you are not transferred from other office this is your thread.

I also noticed that the only spreadsheet that is maintained for current Ankara applicants is not updated regularly and has applicants from 2010 whose timeline does not concern new applicants.

I have created a spreadsheet with a nicer look and better formulas (e.g. average day for each stage).

I have already added some people I knew their timeline from Damascus thread. Please feel free to send me your timeline (either by Private Message or leaving a comment here).

I'm in for a more organized thread, but let's not forget that there are applicants/ sponsors from 2011 and even 2010 who have not received their PPR yet. Their files were transferred from Damascus to Ankara and like us they're waiting. So I'd say let's have all people whose files are still in Ankara and not exclude them just because they are not 2012 applicants.

Cheers.

There is already an active thread for Ankara, it was started last June:
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/ankara-visa-office-applicants-check-in-here-t107669.0.html

We won't get more organized if we keep posting in two (or three) different threads and try maintaining three different spreadsheets for the same VO.

Fair enough. I'll move it there.

I don't have anything against those apps its just that if I put them in their numbers are going to throw off the average calculations.
