My parents are in Ankara. They went to the PTT office and selected the registered mail option. The instruction and addresses were given to them by VFS office as they went there and got them.
Thanks for your reply.
Where should I go in Tehran? Does DHL work? Or should I go to a post office?

HI everyone ,
recently I lost my PR card during a trip to Turkey therefore I have applied to PRTD on May 16 , so far I heard nothing back from Ankara it has been over 40 days since I applied as Urgent process application . on top of that Ankara never replied on any of my inquires emails or PM emails too . all I know is my application is my application at the moment in Ankara.

this was my first trip out of Canada since 2018 I have over 1300 days in Canada as RO , so I applied for PRTD based on regular basis but under urgent process since I need to join back my work .
  1. anyone have applied recently to Ankara office for PRTD can help me with approximate processing time ?
  2. do you think they are taking my application as Urgent based on my situation ?
  3. if I decided to move my file to another IRCC office Telaviv for example , is that possible ?

It has been 3 weeks now and nothing yet unfortunately. The embassy received the passports on 7th June but no update since then.
It has been 2 weeks for us as well. This is Ridiculous. How do they expect people to stay in Turkey for extended time just for their visa to be issued? Please update us when you get your passports back. Thank you

Check with one of the travel agencies in Tehran. They have a service to collect your Visa for you. I have used it 3-4 years ago for my grandma. But I am pretty sure they still have that service. Good luck

Hey folks! Hope everyone is doing great. We were asked to pay
PR card fee on May 16 and then next week to re-do the Medical analysis( as it was expired) which we did and submitted right away however, we did not hear back from immigration since then. I was so happy when they asked to pay a pr card fee, I thought it is going to be quick but it has been already a month and half and no knows which is very stressfull. How long did it take for you to receive an update from
Ankara after you paid pr fee? I would love to hear your experiences to compare with mine. Thank you and best of luck!
