most recent info on British Embassy site:

http://ukinturkey.fco.gov.uk/en/help-for-british-nationals/

I had heard that the 31st Jan deadline had been extended, but this is clearly saying deadline is 31st January, so tomorrow is the last chance if you want to sign up and avoid back payments and a fine by the looks of things

What a nice first post from Stevie Wonder  8)  - what I "wonder" is why he bothered. [?]

Hell it's so hard to be sarcastic in print !!

I was at the SGK office this morning and the deadline has indeed been extended. Also for foreigners.
The SGK network was down this morning so it was completely empty inside. Almost scary  :)

Well Ron, he is obviously not "the sunshine of your life" but I have a "superstition" someone must have "called to say they loved him" :o ;):D

Like Dutchie,we went to to register on Monday,system down, "dont worry  extended by one month come back later",went again on Tuesday place full of the indigenous population registering at the last moment"dont worry come back later period has been extended by one month"
SO!! went today to be told by the Manager its too late,registration ended on Tuesday.Only extended for Turkish folk,
After consultation between staff and said Manager it was decided because of a gap in our residency,we renewed last July, we could apply at a later date without penalty,Left and Right hand syndrome or what?

And they wonder why expats get upset, that's just plain discrimination!

but it did say 31st Jan on UK Embassy website which is where us expats should be taking info from really, and I did post this a few days ago to warn everyone.
Anyway, all was well luckily. I hope no one else has left it too late and will incur a fine though.

Phil and his neighbour went with a Turkish friend to help with translating last week and they weren't allowed to register as they had not completed 1 full years residency.

Woman checked both their books.

Totally and utterly confused by it all now.
