Hi,

I am posting this on behalf of a friend who wants to apply for a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) to attend a business meeting.

The current estimated processing time for TRV applications in his country of residence exceeds 1000 days! (over 2.5 years)

He intends to visit a different country with a shorter TRV processing time and apply for TRV from there.

Let's assume his current country of residence is Pakistan, and he plans to apply from Turkey.

My question: What information should he enter for below questions on his application.
  1. What is your residential address? (This is the address where you currently live.)
  2. List your current country or territory of residence, and include any other countries or territories where you have lived for more than six months within the past five years.
  3. Is your mailing address the same as your residential address?

It is important to note his current status in Turkey would be "visitor" and he would stay there for about 60 Days (not six months).

Is there anyone who tried applying from a country other his normal country of residence?

What information on Application helps in routing the application to nearest Embassy / Consulate / Visa Application Center?
