Hi everyone,I wanted to share my timeline and ask for experiences from anyone processing through the Ankara Visa Office under the SAH (Sponsorship Agreement Holder) stream.Here is our application timeline:Application Submitted: 10/2022Interview Date: 10/2025Medical Exam Passed: 10/2025Security Check Status: We received a response on January 1, 2026, stating that the background/security checks were in progress.Latest Inquiry Response: Recently, after a follow-up inquiry, Ankara VO responded with:"Please be advised that your application was reviewed and it is currently in process.
 
I received an email from the embassy on August 18th inviting me to an interview scheduled for September 17th; however, a few days ago, the IOM contacted me to cancel the appointment, and I have not received any further response since then.
 
If anyone has had a similar experience or is still waiting for a final decision, perhaps we could set up a Telegram group to exchange experiences and updates.

Hopefully you receive the next update soon. Please keep us posted if Ankara sends you any further communication.
