Administrative Processing in Ankara/Turkey. (merged threads)

[aminbar 0]

Hi, My case is employment based, interviewed in Ankara last week. They put me in AP and no document was missing. the co said it takes 3 months

Oh! Some one from Turkey! This is great! Thanks for commenting

I have a lot of questions.

1. Correct me if I'm wrong. You waited from April 27 till June 9 because you're documents were missing right ?

2. On June 24 you're status changed to ready. Your case number starts with ANK2015... Right? If your case is ready, your case number must show up in the link you sent to me ? But I check it everyday. That list was last updated in June 15 and non of case numbers start with ANK2015...

3. What do you mean by we also went from immigrant to non immigrant? Is that how it works?

Yeah we are in AP now. They told me to keep my passport until they contact me. I keep checking that link, but my case number is not there. Last year I went to states with a tourist visa. I think my clearance check would be shorter than normal. However it may be different this time.

I'm Iranian. I also read that the process for Iranians would take longer. We have to wait anyways.

Thanks again.
Please let me know if you get something. I'll be very appreciated. I'll do the same.

Good luck

Dell, Is she Turkish or Iranian? Hopefully your problems get solved soon.

We may need to take another trip to Ankara. Our visa packet came with a tear in the envelope. We may need to get it resealed.

Yes she is Turkish. Thank you, and if I were u I would call the embassy before making that trip to Ankara or email them w an attached pic of the damaged packet.

In my case patience is going to be cure I gues.

Hi All,

Anyone knows if the immigration officer will accept a "Certified True Copy" of the final divorce that was issued from Egypt?

Thank you

Guys, let me ask my question this way,

I had my interview for my K-1 visa on June 16, 2015 in Ankara / Turkey and they sent my case to administrative processing. The consular officer told me to check this webpage http://www.usemb-ankara.org.tr/consular/english/immigrant_admin_processing.htmland when I see my case number, to take my passport to embassy so they can put my visa on it. So up untill now there are no news from my case number on the link above.

My case number starts with ANK2015...

ANK obviously is for Ankara and 2015 is the year they got my case right?

The link above doesn't have any case number starting with ANK2015... not only mine!

Embassy got my case from NVC on May 5 2015. So the question is Do people whom K1 cases are in administrative processing in Ankara require long time to be processed? I mean suppose there is some guy whose K1 case was sent to administrative processing in Ankara on February 2015. So his would also start with ANK2015 right? Or March or April or whatever? Or should I interpret it that as no one's case from Ankara have not been sent to AP in 2015 and I'm the first one.

Idk. Somebody help me over here. Anybody whose case is in AP in Ankara out there?

Any info would be appreciated

My finance's k-1 visa is in Processing Pending status. His Case Number starts with ANK2015 (The paperwork was sent to Ankara in December 2015). He had his interview on March 9. He is Syrian and it is taking a while for the Processing Pending. The site says average is 4 months. My attorney called and they said it will be 5 months.
