Hi everyone!
We submitted our application in May 2022 under the Private Sponsorship of Refugees (PSR) program. We received our UCI number in May 2025, and our online status now says that the processing started on May 14, 2025. Our file has been sent to the Ankara Visa Office.
We are registered with UNHCR (not the Turkish government refugee system we don’t have the Şartlı Mülteci Kimlik). I wanted to ask:
For those of you who did your medical exams in Turkey if you were registered with UNHCR, did IOM help pay for your medical exams? Or did you pay it yourself?
Any help or advice would mean a lot. Wishing the best for everyone here!
