Hello everyone again

I submitted my visa application(Ankara-Turkey Consulate) 7 months ago and I'm not sure if there is a maximum processing time for visas. I'm wondering if the consulate will automatically cancel my application after a certain period of time or if the processing will continue until a decision is made(approved or rejected). I'm seeking help from anyone who has knowledge or experience with this matter.

Also, I will be appreciated it if anybody in the same situation write below

Thanks and BR

Hello Kocali,

did you ask the same question to the Ankara-Turkey Consulate already? It might be a good idea to get this type of information "from the horses mouth", so to speak. If you were unsuccessful to get an answer this way, then please let us know.

Cheers and have a good weekend ...

Hi @nz7521137,

Yes of course there is a miscommunication issue with the Ankara consulate already . Even we have no reply for the important issues too. Neither phone nor email. I have to go there and ask directly whenever I need an answer.

@kocali And when you went to the consulate last time and asked your questions, what did they say about a maximum processing time and the need for re-application and the like?

Actually, I asked a different question while I was there. If I was there to ask about processing time, I guess they wouldn't have given a clear answer.

By the way, Is there anybody waiting over 7 months?
