@Ade mary  welcome 😊

Hi All,

I have a query regarding marriage certificate.

After marriage my wife changed her name.

But my marriage certificate has her old name.

I read in other posts that the marriage name and passport name has to be same.

Is that the case. Kindly clarify.

Note : We already have a affidavit stating her name change in newspaper. I don't know if this will be considered as valid proof.

@Bechkam7 I had similar situation but so far no questions asked. Don't think it is a problem and it is understood that names would change after marriage.

@Ade mary congrats

In my case, applied on Nov 11, on Jan 10 it was registered in dofi . I am still awaiting, status shows still Treatment

@Ade mary congratulations 🥳

Is it every visa D application that must be transferred to FPS home affairs in Belgium??? And how Mong does it take to track it in their site when it’s transferred/sent???

secondly, is 6months a mandatory time to get  visa D or it can be granted in lesser month/time???

@Spencer Gee Gold D visa normally goes to Brussels for approval. Each application is different so the timeline differs. But the average waiting time is 3-4 months from arrival in Brussels.

@Ade mary Congrats sister, I’m so happy for you

Is it ideal to make a flight booking in the visa D application even when one does not know when the visa will be granted???

Nigerians don’t need to book flight until it is approved. I’m just waiting to go pick up my visa before buying ticket.

Thanks I thought as much too. I only asked because one of the officials and attendants of TLS contact was asking me for flight reservations when I was submitting and I guess that was because I wrote that I will be using a year on my application form and that was because one is not allowed to leave the place blank

Good day, please I want to know how long does one use the “orange card” on getting to Belgium, and can I travel out of Belgium during the specified period because my wife is planning our honeymoon and she’s worried I won’t be able to travel while I’m still with orange card.

Secondly, is “F card” same as “EU card” ?? And how long will I make use of the too?? And where and where can I travel to when I have that???

Thirdly, how long does it take to get citizenship in Belgium and get Belgium ID???

what are my Obligations in these periods???

@Spencer Gee Gold is your visa already approved ?

Hi ,

Anyone recently got your Family reunification Visa ( art 10) approved, we have applied in February and would like to know which month applications are being processed.

Thanks in advance

Dear all,

Hope you are doing well. As we submitted our D visa applications at 30 Nov 2022. Registration 17 Feb, 23. Already long time have been passed but in tracking still showing Under Process. Afterwards we send them (IBZ) mail  several times  and contacted them over phone to know our files current status and request them for issue our visa at earliest .But they reluctant to provide any update and said we have to wait. They didn't given us any update or mail reply. So in this circumstance what can we do to know the real status and early getting the visa. Since we have two kids under 10 yrs. and they are mentally broken up lack of their mother. Also my spouse being depressed day by day. Even She cannot concentrating on her study as well.The situation is going worst. Though we mailed IBZ mentioning the full situation. But we think they may avoiding or not considering  our problems. Please suggest us what can we do .

Your cooperation would be highly appreciated.

Best regards

Good evening

I understand your plight and that of your family.

family reunification visa with an EU takes max 6months Processing

family reunification with a non EU takes max 9 months Processing

@khaledrasel1980

I have the same problem like you . I applied in September 2022, got refused in February 2033.

Your wife must be working and earning more than 1950euros  to support one person , with two children's i think its more .

They don't care . I got refused 5 times and cannot even apply for a holiday visa to visit him.

Be prepared to be rejected .

@Babitha De Ruyter Good to hear you and take my condolence. Could you please share us the reasons of your refusal. So that we can assume something negative to be happened.

Regards

Khaled Rasel

@Ade mary hope you are well enough and thanks for your cooperation for applicants. Could you please tell me how you assume Nov,22 files are proceeding avobe in other case. I mean what is their policy to assess the files based on either submission date or Immigration registration date. As I have submitted our files ( myselfe along with two kids) at 30 Nov, 2022 Immigration registered 17 Feb,23 but still showing PROCESSING in the track. Which making us anxious day by day as you can imagine for 2 kids and their mother staying distantly about 7 months. They are very sad in this moment.

Your cooperation would be highly appreciated.

I did my research with the help of this forum and my husband. After submission in November 15th 2022, They sent a mail after 3 weeks stating that my application has been sent to Belgium for processing. We called after 8 weeks and we’re told Processing is 12/13 weeks. After processing,it will be uploaded on the website. We didn’t see anything on the website at 13 weeks until after 15weeks. This Processing is mainly for family of a Belgian or EU citizen.I submitted complete documents on the appointment date and I got it after 16weeks. If you’re documents are not complete, it might lead to refusal or they request for additional documents. While processing for Non EU takes up to 15months to be processed

My reunification timeline:

Submitted via TLS South Africa - 11 November 2022

Received in Brussels - 8 December 2022

Request for additional documents - 28 February 2023 ( Proof of lease registration myrent.be)

Accord (Approval) - 22 March 2023
