While Canada may indeed be facing domestic capacity issues, these challenges have not changed...

    PSR timelines — Turkey (Ankara visa office)

    Thanks for sharing your timeline. I know Ankara is slow these days, but 2+ years without any updates does seem unusually long compared to most cases we’ve seen. Sometimes IRCC sends requests or notices that end up in spam or get missed, so it might be worth double checking your email and account...

    PSR timelines — Turkey (Ankara visa office)

    I think it's a good idea to request your GCMS notes at this point, especially since your application process is taking longer than usual. Is there anything specific in your case that might be causing the delay?

    Group of five Private sponsorship from India

    The processing time really depends on the workload of the visa office. I have been waiting for 3 months and have not received any updates from the Ankara visa office. I believe it will take between 7 to 12 months to hear back from them.

    Privately Sponsored Refugee from Turkey

    Hey! Thanks a lot for your reply and for sharing that info. Just to clarify It’s G5, i think i mistakenly wrote 2022 instead of 2023. Is your Visa Office also Ankara? I’d really appreciate it if you could let us know it’s important for us to understand where the processing is taking place.
