What is the current status of visa applications at the Ankara Embassy for expats?

Day 43 after application (12 December): Pending document check. 10 days left until my flight. I’m super anxious. Ankara Embassy. Cannot reach them via phone. I emailed them twice so far; on Day 30 and 40. No reply. Any recent info from Ankara?

UPDATE: They approved my visa, late at night. The night before my flight.

After reaching out via email without any response, they eventually received approval on the night before their departure. Comments from others provide insights about previous processing times and inquirers about the user's nationality and current location.

Half a year ago, they were reviewing applications in Ankara not earlier than 1 week before the indicated desired entry date. I am not sure if it's still the case there. What entry date did you put into the application?
