Hey guys, my interview was on 14th April but it has been cancelled by e-mail and there is no reason at all. I don't know why. What you guys think?

Hello,
is there anyone who is still waiting for medical exam instructions after 8-9 months from submission?

 

[ARZBAB]

Hello again,
Just to make sure, is the "Web form" the best way to contact Ankara office? I am still within normal processing time but worried about not being asked for medical exam after 9 months. I want to try my chance and ask about it. I have a feeling that they might have missed it as I have had similar problem before.
Thanks

I did biometrics in September 2019, and then my application was transferred to Ankara.

Hi,
Could you pick up your visa? If yes, how many days did it take?

 

[Amir1523]

Not yet unfortunately.

Unfortunately I think they paused sending PPR emails as they said "approved permanent residents who haven’t landed should not travel yet". What is your perception regarding the following link?

I read that, because I am waiting my PPR. This is the online chat message of the Ankara embassy support.

Customers are advised to check the respective country-specific page, or "COVID-19: Customer Advisories" section, on www.vfsglobal.com or the respective embassy/consulate website.
