Hi everyone,


I recently applied for family reunification within Belgium. I was wondering if there is also a way to follow your application from here or if I always need to ask the municipality for status on my dossier? The municipality asked me to contact them only after 6 months to know if the file has been approved or not, but I would like to  track the progress.

Hello Everyone,




If someone wants to make a family reunification application.  Sponsor lives in Belgium. The sponsor currently live in a studio but just signed a contract for 2 bedroom accommodation starting in 6 month's time to cover for the family when they arrive. Would that be accepted as proof of accommodation or sponsor will have to wait until they move into the new accommodation before initiating the process? Thanks

Hi, you will probably have to wait until the contract for the 2 bedroom apartment starts. The apartment contract needs to be registered (myminfin) as well and I guess that is only possible when the new contract officially starts.
