My husband received an **Interview Invitation Letter** from ankara visa office yesterday Sad , however he is not able to attend due to issues with him being unable to get a turkish visa. He has already emailed them to let them know he won't be able to attend the interview.
Does anyone know what AVO next step might be or do you guys have a similar experience with another visa office? Cry
We are wondering if they would allow him to be interviewed in Georgia as this is where he resides right now.

The officer will not undertake the interview if the interpretation is not adequate. Please note that immigration consultants, sponsors and relatives will not be allowed to interpret for applicants.
If you have not already done so, you may ask your sponsor to pay your right of permanent residence fee (RPRF). Failure to do so will delay the processing of your application.
