The answers below are translated from the original Russian - the language of the community chats.
I had a letter requesting to transfer the case to another country written on December 1, and on December 27 received the DQ status - along with it came the transfer.
Yes, of course, I wrote as soon as I received the DQ, at the beginning of January. The attorney said that there is currently a very high percentage of cases sent for administrative review in Poland, so they asked for another consulate.
You can reschedule through a public inquiry; their response takes 30 days or more. If the interview is postponed, there's no guarantee that you'll gain time - everything could drag on for an even longer period.
I don't know the details, but my mother checks each step with the attorney. She received her residence permit for Turkey, is currently there, went through a medical examination here, her documents are also here, and she is waiting for an interview appointment in Ankara.
The situation with Turkey is still unclear. We put in so much effort to obtain the residence permit and based on that request an interview in Turkey. And in the end, according to reviews, the wait time in Turkey is almost a year, while in Warsaw everyone is sent for administrative review, which will also take time - and getting there, to put it mildly, is problematic.
