any news from Brussels?

One of the guys who files for single permits mostly for Indian Engineers in Belgium for his Multiple Belgium Clients told me yesterday regarding the timeline of Single Permit.

When I shared my timeline with him stating that my WP was uploaded on Portal on 10 Jan 2022 and Work Authorization was approved from 4 Jan 2022 and on-wards. He told me you can possibly get it by Jan 2022 end or maybe first week of Feb 2022, you will get SP for sure.

So if everything is sorted at authorities end you can expect your SP to arrive by End of Jan 2022 Max in my opinion. Of course you will get it first since your WP was already approved in Dec 2021.

seems like you have very good contacts, thank you!

You should get the RP anyday now... All the best!

Not really but it seems everyone has to wait for a very longer period and go through this Bureaucratic process which makes you wait till eternity.

Hi, I have question with regard to documents for applying visa!!!

Does anyone knows that, Is there any problem if my date of birth has one month difference mismatch in passport and birth certificate, while applying dependent visa along with my husband's visa application? 
Is it really required to submit birth certificate? or marraige certificate will be sufficient enough?

My visa application will be submitted along with my husband's applicaiton since he got SWP.

Note:-apostille attestation is already done for my birth certificate.

I'm sure no one here is waiting longer than my friend, sharing my time track, region Flanders: 21 Sep 2021 (privacy email) 15 Dec 2021 Request to add new files, wp  : Approved on December 21, 2021, sp: Waiting for 4 months, still no result...!

Hi there,
for me, similar situation...
Just called the city hall and they said it's normal to take 4 months. Once you got the work permit, then it's just matter of time to get the SP.
Fingers crossed.
cheers,

Hi all,

Thanks for sharing this very useful info!

My case:

Region: FLanders
Application date: 21, Oct
Work Permit: 23, Dec
Annex 46: Still waiting

Hi everyone! Anyone got any news on SPs?
Applied 29th Sept, WP 15th december, still no answer. The waiting time at the end is the worst:)))

In my country they don't ask my birth certificate in the embassy, just marriage certificate. The birth certificate is only for my daughter

Your region is Flanders or Brussels ?

And are your aware the your company HR had directly filed your SP or via an agency ?

Did anyone get their work permit from Flanders region this week? If yes, what date did your employer submit the application?

Can you let me know when you receive your work permit? My employer submitted my application on 9 November as well

An update from the agency dealing with my application- there is new treatment time of 6 weeks for Single Permits. However, they are not necessarily treated in chronological order and some files are treated differently depending on certain elements so it is very unclear.

I hope that this information is true
I received this email yesterday from the Immigration office:

The treatment period can take around 2 months through our services. This counts from the date of the region's.

By the way, the immigration office were saying that their treatment period is 3 weeks right before the Christmas break.

Some general info about the new rules starting from 2020 (like renewal process as mine). Maybe will be interesting for someone here

In most embassies, the birth certificate is requested and also for the commune registration, it can be requested.
Please ensure both dates correspond before visiting the embassy or before coming to Belgium.

Nothing from my end my employer send the email to Immigration dept last week still waiting for response however I had asked them to try and get in touch via phone call  but going by multiple threads on SP, I am not very sure regrading the same as well.

but u can still work based on workpermit approval. it should not be an issue

I just got my WP (unlimited) after 13 weeks and it says that it is valid with residence permit. So I have to wait for another 5? Weeks?! So WP has no use.

Unlimited WP?
Well, if you already live and work in Belgium, if WP received, you can continue to work. If you are not in Belgium yet, you must wait for RP. I sent an article about it here like yesterday.
