Hi,
Could you please let me know process for extension of dependent visa for my wife. Its till Oct this year- but i need to get it extended till Next year March.
Thanks,
PRANAY

I assume she is in Belgium with you and has her residence permit.

She needs to go to the local town hall or  commune and ask for an extension of residence permit. Commune will suggest what documents are needed. Usually it is your residence permit, your latest 3 payslips, an insurance undertaking and CPAS document.

Thanks AneeshKS for the information.
She is here with me, her Visa is valid till Oct-17 however the residence card issued from Local townhall is valid till Mar-18.
Do I still need to renew her visa ? If so, shall I directly connect with townhall  or to consulate?

Thanks,
PRANAY

It has been mentioned many times in this forum.. D type visa is just for initial entry for long stay. Once residence permit is received, that is your visa thereafter. You need to go to the commune only to renew the residence permit.

Hi Melki Anderson,

Is your dependent visa request is approved?  If Yes, how much time it took?
