    Arian and negmeh, Thanks for the kind words. To answer your questions I went into the embassy not the immigration office nor the VAC. I had a few BAD arguments with 3 people and the 4th person I yelled at said that he will look into it and 2 hours later I got the notification and picked it...

    Keeponwaiting22, The first time you change your flight will cost 100 euros. The second time will cost 150 euros. I did go to the embassy on Friday and the guy basically told me that they don't care about how much this is costing us. I'll let you know what happened when I come back from the...

    Keeponwaiting22, my guess is as good as yours. Right now I'm staying with my wife and I'm hoping for the best. But I'm not sure what will happen if she has to stay here for a while. My wife has no passport to go anywhere, she is officially stuck here. I think the guy was just promoting his...

    Hi, I got your first question covered. It's a bid of an older hotel. Close to my hotel, it's overall 30-40 minutes from the embassy. The beds in the normal room - $120/night- don't look like that they are the greatest. The Cafe is like a little better than a fast food sitting area. The...

    Aribc- that's the issue, they have my wife's passport and she can't even leave turkey so I have to stay with her. The problem is that there's absolutely no time frames given. Like the guy said at the VAC, hope for the best. It seems like, this only applies to the immigration/sponsorship visas...

    Hi Sadly no, they said they have no clue how long it will take. Keeponwaiting22 is right. Here's what I have learned so far: 1- they said it's a printer issue, however my dad said that a similar thing happened at the USA embassy they also said it was a printer issue but it was a security...

    MRS.KOR, anytime. Hopefully you will get to experience this as well - very soon-. Keeponwaiting22, when I got to the VAC, there was nobody in front of me. The reason is that the VAC specializes in complex cases and there are not many of them out there. Thank god lol. Everybody else has to go...
