Uzun yıllardır Türkiye’de yasal olarak yaşıyorum fakat son zamanlarda şirket hataları ve çalışma izni/oturum süreçlerindeki iptaller yüzünden çok stresli bir durumun içinde kaldım.

Aylarca yasal olarak çalıştım. Daha sonra çalışma izni transfer sürecinde işler karmaşık hale geldi. Bir başvuru iptal edildi, ardından oturum başvurum 32. madde gerekçesiyle reddedildi ve şu anda hem itiraz süreciyle uğraşıyorum hem de maddi olarak hayatta kalmaya çalışıyorum.

Beni en çok zorlayan şey ise yaşlı anneme burada tek başıma bakıyor olmam. Tamamen bana bağımlı. Artık neredeyse uyuyamıyorum çünkü her gün korku, belirsizlik, farklı şeyler söyleyen avukatlar, süre baskısı, göç idaresi stresi ve yıllardır kurduğum hayatı bir anda kaybetme korkusuyla geçiyor.

Üstelik kendi ülkemde daha önce hiç yaşamadım. Oraya zorla gönderilme düşüncesi bile beni gerçekten korkutuyor.

Türkiye’de oturum reddi, insani ikamet veya mahkeme süreci yaşamış olan biri varsa dürüst şekilde deneyimlerini paylaşabilir mi? Çünkü mental olarak gerçekten çok yoruldum.

Title: I honestly don’t know what to do anymore with my residency situation in Turkey

I’ve been living in Turkey for many years legally and recently ended up in a very stressful situation because of work permit/residency issues caused by company mistakes and cancellations.

I worked legally for months, then during a work permit transfer process things became complicated. One application got canceled, my residency application was later rejected under Article 32, and now I’m stuck in this horrible legal uncertainty while trying to appeal and survive financially at the same time.

What makes it harder is that I’m also taking care of my elderly mother here. She depends on me completely. I barely sleep anymore because every day feels like fear, confusion, lawyers saying different things, deadlines, immigration stress, and not knowing if I’ll suddenly lose everything I built here over the years.

I never even lived in my country before, so the thought of being forced there honestly terrifies me.

Has anyone here gone through something similar in Turkey with residence permit rejection, humanitarian residence permit, or court appeals? I just want honest experiences or advice or any support because mentally I feel exhausted.

for dating with different men at the same time?

I reached my breaking point after 2 years of being ghosted and manipulated

I have been in a toxic cycle for two years with a man who specializes in the disappearing act. He would treat me like his future wife for a week, then vanish for months without a word. While we were together, he would openly flirt with others, making me feel completely invisible. I stayed because I was addicted to the crumbs of affection and the promises of marriage he would dangle whenever I tried to leave.

Has anyone else ever reached a point where they started acting like their manipulator just to get them to stop? I feel lost.

Mine is when cats randomly choose me as their temporary employee on the street.

I don’t own them. I don’t know them. But somehow for 3 minutes I become responsible for their emotional wellbeing 😭

Sometimes stress alone feels more tiring than physical work. You wake up already mentally drained and spend the whole day trying to calm your thoughts.

I miss the feeling of having a genuinely peaceful mind for even one full day.

which place of istanbul accept second hand stuffs?

Hi everyone, I’m looking for guidance regarding my current immigration situation in Turkey.

I’ve been living in Istanbul for over 7 years and held a valid residence permit continuously for around 8 years. I always tried to follow the rules and stay fully compliant.

Last year, I obtained a work permit and started working legally. Later, I had to change companies, and the new employer applied for a transfer. Unfortunately, due to issues on their side, the application wasn’t completed properly. Around the same time, my previous permit was canceled.

Since then, my situation has become very complicated.

I applied again for a residence permit as a backup, but it was rejected under Article 32. I am now out of legal status, even though I did everything I could to stay compliant.

I have already spent a significant amount of money on applications and legal fees, and I’m now trying to understand the best way forward.

What makes this more difficult is that I am the sole caregiver for my elderly mother who lives with me here, so leaving the country is not a simple option.

At this point, I’m considering:

Filing an appeal against the rejection

Applying for humanitarian residence

I would really appreciate any guidance on:

Which option is stronger in practice (appeal vs humanitarian residence)?

Whether it’s possible or advisable to pursue both

If there are any NGOs or organizations in Turkey that provide support (legal or financial) in cases like mine

If anyone has gone through a similar situation or has knowledge about this process, your advice would mean a lot to me.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this.
