Hi Felipe Guerrero,
I agree with likeaen, you are very lucky your registration is made in 12 days. My wife applied 06/12/2021 to obtain visa D in the frame of family reunion as well. The demand has not been registered on IBZ. You don't have to be too worried.
Hi,
Could you pls help me understand the status amd processing time for Family visa.

What you would like to learn? It can change according to the cases.
But if non eu applies to join a non eu, it’s 6 months and if required additional 3 months = max 9 months
If non eu applies to join an eu, it is max 6 months
My spouse has applied visa in home country on 07.12.2021 and it got registered on 10.01.2022.
We both are non EU ..it means 6 months from the date of registration or it can be done before also. Because one of my colleque who is also with same non.eu status had his spouse with done in 3 months. My case is spouse along with kids.

It is six months from the first day you applied. Each case is different and process can be shorten or long. But as I see and read from past replies. It is around 4months. You can hope your family will arrive in may but something can happen and it can be longer.
We applied in August and they asked for extra documents and we have trouble now and we still didn’t get visa.
So you should be patient and wait. Hope for best..
Hello
Hope all are doing well..!
I have applied for Visa D dependent on 15th Dec 2021.
I wanted to know if the visa status for anyone who has applied during that time, has changed from “in treatment” to approved.
Thanks for your time and posts.. helps a lot
Hi.. Ours is also showing same In treatment .
U check on ibz?
Yes
Can u show me a pic of your status . U can block out your reference number
oohhh, you check on ibz?. ibz for me doesn't show anything. I wrote to them twice now, they said my document is currently being treated. ibz didn't show me anything. I cant track it
Yeah i cant see it too although they say its there. Did they give u a 5 digit or 3 digit reference number?
I have a 5-digit reference. I have tried with all the references I have.
I followed the instructions on how to track one's application.
How to track your application :
All files once received at the Embassy are given a unique file number. This number will be visible on your online Visa-On-Web form as soon as the application is received at the Consulate (i.e the working day after the submission to the service provider).
You will find this unique number at the very top of the form, under the heading "Basic information" in the field "Visa application number". It is composed as follows: BELXXXX (= code of the post) + 0 ... 0 (fill zeros) + 5 or 6 numbers constituting the official visa application number.
For example, for the number "BEL009700000000000000000000080927", the file number is "80927".
Dear all,
The Visa D of my wife was approved yesterday!
So our timeline was.
Date de la demande de visa: 14.12.2021
Date de l'enregistrement de la demande de visa par l'Office des étrangers: 24.12.2021
Décision: ACCORD
Date de la décision: 11.02.2022.
I see our process was fast. During that time, I signed a contract on 24.12.2021 to work for a new company (to start by 01.04.2022), my new work-residence permit was approved on 18.01.2022 and my A card validity was extended from 2023 to 2025. I am not sure if this affected my wife's visa D application.
Wish you all the best! If I can help on somethig, please drop a DM.
Hi congrats on your visa approval.
May I know when you have applied for visa and What's your status EU or Non EU..
Hi Felipe
Many congratulations

Hi
When did you apply for visa D?
Please I want to apply for visiting visa from my home country. I’ve been on the site and I want to ask if I need to legalise my birth certificate at the Belgium embassy before submitting or it’s not needed. How long does it take to get the visa. Also is it compulsory to get a flight itinerary or not
Hi asifawar5563
My wife and I are non-EU citizens. I have been living in Belgium since 2018: as student in 2018-2020 and as employee in 2020-present.
Me and my wife got married in our home country on 10.12.2021 and she applied for the visa D at the Belgian embassy on 14.12.2021.
Dear Felipe,
Lovely to hear that and many Congratulations.
I have a small question. Did you need to submit your new residence permit again to the Embassy or did they verify your partner's application based on the old one only?
Hi RAJA91
Once I got my new single permit (as Annex 46), I sent this annex + my new contract to the embassy and to the family reunification deparment (gh.visa@ibz.fgov.be). This happened on 19.01.2022.
After a few days, I called the embassy and they said they emailed such documents to the Immigration Office here in Brussels in order to update my wife's dossier (dossier given on 14.12.2022).
But to the honest I am not sure is these new documents influenced my wife's visa D approval.
My husband submitted the application on Nov. 29, 2021.
It registered on ibz on Jan.05, 2022.
Now its status is in process/En traitement
I sent ibz an email and they replied: "We have received the visa application and it is currently being treated. Normally the treatment period is 9 months (maximum 15 months) from the date stated on the proof of submission. As soon as a decision is taken it will be communicated by the diplomatic post which will invite the visa applicant and give the decision."
Is this the normal treatment time? 15 months is too long
But for they didn’t ask anything they give us rejected and they didn’t let us anything. I call them ibz to asked info about my file and they send 8feb was rejected then I found out there’s documents they need ( health insurance) i send them
My question is do I need to send vfs and embassy?
Excuse my language .* I mean for me they didn’t asked anything
Hi,
I applied for a D-type visa, family reunification, non-EU, from VFS Delhi
Here are my details.
Date de la demande de visa: Nov 23 2021
Date de l'enregistrement de la demande de visa par l'Office des étrangers: Jan 5 2022
Décision: En traitement
Has anyone applied in a similar timeline and obtained their visa? Could anyone please let me know if they are aware of the processing time during this period?
Thank you.
Does the 6months & 9 months start from.the day you submit to VFs/ TLS? Or from the day the application is submitted in Brussels?
@Felipe Guerrero15
Just a quick question. Do they ask you if you are staying in a flat or not?. Your accommodation status. I have been living in a flat and paying a lot of money just for the visa.
How far is your application now?
@Kendy Makere
For your question, I dont have answers to it.
The current processing time of files with Immigration can be found on the following websites:

Hi Emmanuel,
I am sorry for not checking your post before.
I have been renting a 1-bedroom appartment (50 sq. meters app., 715 EUR/month) since July 2020. So presented the rent contract and its registration.

hey, the visa is now accord.
here is my timeline:
2021.11.29 submit to VFS
2022.01.05 registered at ibz
2022. 03. 26: ACCORD
Hope it helps!
Congrats. How long is your dvisa valid for?
When does the official processing times actually start being calculated from especially if submission was at TLS and if there was a missing document and the embassy submitted 3 months later to Brussels? Do they calculate from the TLS submission date or from when it arrived in Brussels?
I receive my annex 46 in begining of March, ( with mention VISA D accordé avc entrée Multiple)
So I postulate my VISA D with my family on 21/03/2022,
and until we don't have any Feedback from embassy,
@Guest23756 hello did u get any update after submission of insurance
