yes. The from here in turkey I applied for residence permit. It was just 400TL . You can stay legally while waiting for process. Might take half a year.
thank you so much for the response. I dont want to go back to home country because im a nurse and when I go there we will have quarantine and they will not let me out so I can help with COVID patients. Will continue to monitor the news. Thanks for the update! ❤️
