I think I am going to need help from Neylan to sort out my SGK / Bagkur problems.
My wife and I went along to the SGK office today to try and obtain this insurance. The Head of Office, a Lady was unavailable, but a gentleman introduced as her assistant spoke to us via our interpreter.
He made two things clear: The cost would be 200Tl per person per month, and in addition to our Passports, Residence Permits and Kimlik number we would have to produce an unspecified document from a Consulate ( Istanbul or Ankara being his suggestions ) proving that we were both "Retired" and that we were both "Uninsured"
He was unable or unwilling to explain just what was meant by "Uninsured"
He would have no dealings with us until we had obtained these unspecified documents.
Have the "Rules" changed yet again?
Of those helpful souls posting on this Topic - can they tell me just how recently they applied for their SGK/Bagkur please?
