Hello everyone,
Is there any method I do to speed up the processing time of our applications.
We submitted our applications two months ago, and it still in behandeling/pending.

Hi ethar ethar,

I don't think you can speed up the process. You can probably keep checking the status of your application on the VFSglobal website.

Ours took 4 months. We submitted it in February and got the decision in June.

Hope that helps. Good luck!
