Guys they finally updated the new processing time today. so now Ankara VO new processing time is 6 months. it was 5 months before, and now 6 moths. i think that means all the spousal application they receive, this new processing time would count for it. :)

Unfortunately no.
That posted timeline is for applications filed between JANUARY 2011 and DECEMBER 2011, that was before all the transferring from Damascus and also Tehran.
CIC never predicts how long applications will take in the future, all the data on the website is for what is has previously been. With all the transferring which has happened it is unlikely for the timeline to stay around 6 months.

Sorry :(
These timelines on CIC website are helpful when everything is normal and no transferring or overloading of a visa office has occured, that's when we can assume ok if 6 months has been the average for last year it is likely to be the average for this year too. So in our case unfortunately we can't rely on CIC's data right now for Ankara, as it is for last year, when they had no files from Damascus and Tehran.
But with all the hiring and job opportunities they are posting on their website inshallah in a really short time things will get back to normal and Ankara will be one of the fastest again.
Wish you a speedy process Alish jan. :)

i don't know what 2 say. when i called the cic here in canada, they told me it kinda stupid if Ankara VO refer to the new time line only 4 those old applicants. it includes all even new transfered ones. but they said keep in mind with the huge volume of files transfered it might be a bit longer. Vivi personally i believe the new time line covers all the applicants. im the optimistic one :)
