@Faycal Hamoudi
I am still waiting also and no feedback till now.
Regarding the feedbacks in this group, I guess Flanders takes the longest time to give the Single permit.

What is Annex 46 and why is that required if the working permit is already issues ?
Does Annex 46 means the residence permit ?

annexe 46 is the single permit... and so the reason why you'll get your visa... (combo resident permit + work permit)
we've talked about it thousand of time before on this forum, so don't hesitate to use the search function.

@Tugce Varol Yes. The agent told me that we can start with WP and our current residence permit. Annex 46 might come later.
I had WP twice in Belgium in the past and both times it arrived within 3-4 weeks. No idea why they have these delays now😬.

Hello everyone,
In my case for the adminstrative costs (366 euros), the employer did not mention anything to me so I assume they paid it themselves.
I notice that WP applications submitted in March and April get approved fast. Mine was submitted on 19 April but I still did not hear back anything.
I have a question. If I am now on a resident in Belgium as a student, can I start working directly when the WP is approved or do I need to wait for the SP and annex 49?
Regards,

Hi Guys,
I have a Question as below :
1) How can we know from which region our Employer has applied for WP ?
2) Does Brussels region Process is actually Faster than Flanders ?
3) Does the WP approved mail comes to us or Employer ?
My Application has been submitted on 15th April and same day I have got the noreply mail from social security, what does this mail indicate ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have a question regarding the necessity of National Visa D. At the moment I'm residing in a EU member country and have their Temporary Residence Permit which allows me to travel around in other EU countries. The agency who applied single permit for me told us that I wouldnt need to apply for Visa due to the reason mentioned above. Has anyone been through similar situation? And if so, did they need to get the visa anyways or no?
Thanks in advance.

@gafarvictoir
For which Region ?

@SimCityAT
I disagree. If you closely follow the thread and posted timelines, this thread is helpful and makes sense. Although it will not give a clearcut idea but it's a reliable one for first timers.
