It is hard to say really, for most people it takes much less time than 12 months. Most likely it will only take 3-5 months after sponsorship approval. 12 months is in the worst case only. I hope for your sake it will not take that long!

You can take a look at the spreadsheet at "getcanadavisa.ca", that will give you some idea of how long it has been taking recently for people to get their passport requests.

Best of luck! :)

Hi Everyone,
I am group five applicant and I have a question for people who have same applicant, after passports request what is the next step?
your reply and comment will be very high appreciated
Regards
Hi Bakir,
You need to take all the passports and applicants to the visa application center in ankara or istanbul. There is a fee you need to pay there too. So don't forget to have some money with you. I am one applicant I paid 45 turkish liras.i don't know how much you pay for 5. You need to fill out the form that they sent you and bring the photos they want and a copy of the ppr email. At the visa office they will take your passports and give you a paper with a user number on it. They also send an email right away saying that they received your passport. Then you can check if your passport is ready to pick up with that number but they also send an email when it is ready to pick up. Then you go back with that paper that they gave you and an ID to pick your passport. Mine took just one day. I have my passport on Monday and picked it up on Tuesday afternoon. Hope you get yours soon too.
Good luck

Hey all,

I got an email regarding submission of Passport for Visa issuance on March 2nd. As I am Iranian and currently residing in Germany, I sent an email to ankara-visa @ international.gc.ca titled “NEW ADDRESS FOR VISA ISSUANCE” on march 2nd. But unfortunately after 3 weeks I didn't get any response yet. I only have less than a week to pick up my Visa.

Has anyone had same experience before?

Thanks.
Hey,
I think you should have let them know as soon as you moved to germany. you need to try to get a hold of them as soon as possible probably. Or you can just come to Turkey and submit your passport. There are cheap flights from Germany.
But I don't know what the process is if you can't make it within the given period.

Hi boleko,

Thanks for your reply. I've been here for 2 years and I let them know when I applied for immigration.

12 months worst case scenario? lol :) I have been patiently waiting for over 14 months for ankaras decision on our application ( 4 months after the interview) its been the most frustrating and lonely time of my entire life although I'm happy for everyone who got their approvals but its a bit annoying to read ppl complaining that they are waiting 3 5 or 6 months ,.... Congratulations your half way there and thank your lucky stars if you get your PPR within the CIC time frame . people don't realize how incredibly lucky they are. Be prepared for the long road ahead. Its hard and its lonely. And be thankful your not in my situation. I miss my husband more than anything in this world. Sorry for my rant but I'm tired of everyday opening my inbox and finding it being empty :(

no worries friend just ask for your notes and see what is going on, If there is a reason for delay you will find out and probably
they will ask your AP for an interview like me. I am still waiting for an interview to be done and even their own agent in Ankara could
not explain why they did cancel the first appointment and all she told me was "I am sorry"

hİ em.ma,

Did you try to contact the embassy? because now that the processing time is down to 10 months and yours has been more than 10 months, you are allowed to contact them I think.
