Has anyone received any updates? I'm just wondering if anyone who applied for sponsorship from Turkey has heard anything recently.
 
no updates yet, i received my G number february 2025 i think after august or october i will be invited for interview
First, you need to get sponsorship approval, and after that, you’ll wait for the interview. I also received G number in February 2025.
 
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!

Refugees will not pay for their medical and tickets directly you will sign a loan and after arriving Canada you will start paying

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.
