Congrats but I must say this people are really unfair in their judgement and processing, I applied February 28th and still no results while someone that applied 30th March already got his/hers. I smell racism. It’s really unfair

Yes it truly is unfair, looks like they're working on the March files, :/ because most of the applicants here applies in March and got their approval in June.

You applied in Feb, I think they are going to update the ibz at the end, with the approval status at once.

Yes maybe but it’s really unfair because I learnt that they treat this applications from oldest to newest, so why I’m I still kept wanting? Or could it be because I have once been refused Schenghen visa in two EU countries while trying to go see my wife before we got married??? Could that be a strong factor for delay???

-@Abena ne

Their so called processing is just so frustrating and confusing. I need you all to know that nobody amongst us works at the immigration office, we all are just speculating to keep our hopes living. All we can do is wait and it will all end with good news

-@Abena ne

I have no idea how they work, I just saw the tracking date and see it started tracking before ours. I also saw that they say on the ibz website that it's from oldest to newest. But now we see that is not the case..... They work on their own time!!

Hello,


Does anyone know if Turkish citizens need to pay 198 euros for the application?

Spencer Gee Gold

Hello,
Does anyone know if Turkish citizens need to pay 198 euros for the application?
-@berna polat71

I guess you must be referring to the additional payment to the home office,…well everyone is expected to pay that without exemptions, the only payment exemption is the visa fee and that is if you got married to an EU National but if not, you will be required to pay visa fee also.

berna polat71

Thats not true. When I first apply for my single permit, I paid 366 euros but I got this money back because turkish people out of charge. So I wonder if it is the same with family reunification also.

stellaokonta

Please I need help on dis

Decision/Status File: Awaiting receipt of documents supporting the visa application, which will be sent by the Belgian diplomatic/consular post by diplomatic suitcase.

Is a week today  I have not head anything from the embassy I applied  on the 16th of March  I do not knw if our  documents has not been sent to Belgium me and my daughters

-@berna polat71

Well that is the limit of my understanding to this. Kindly find the truth yourself then, I guess if you are knowledgeable enough about this, you shouldn’t be on here asking questions

berna polat71

@Spencer Gee Gold it is not mean to say that's not true. If you dont know it just don't answer it. I am not waiting help from you especially, I am waiting help from people who has better knowledge about it.

hibbasaleem18

I have dared to email the info desk 😂

And I am completely hopeless for a reply, but still I emailed them 😂

Let's see if they respond or not

-@berna polat71

You don’t come across as someone who is waiting to be helped by a knowledgeable person, if I must tell you the truth,….you sound as if you already knew about it all but yet asking people to repeat it to you. We are all on here to brainstorm, rub minds and help each other in whatever aspects we lack knowledge about our application, so if I see an applicant on here pose a question and I tried to give my piece of information as little as I know, I don’t expect the application to tell me “that is not true” it’s kinda disrespectful to me. There is a polite inoffensive way you can say it rather than that.

They will reply you but blankly, below is what they will send to you…,


Dear Madam, Dear Sir,


You enquire about the status of a visa application.

We have received the visa application and it is currently being treated. The legal timeframe in which a decision must be taken is 6 months counting from the date of introduction of the demand. 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.

You may follow the status of your application through the website of the Immigration service through “What is happening to my visa application?” which you can access through this link:

https://dofi.ibz.be/sites/dvzoe/NL/Page … vraag.aspx

For this you will need the visa application number and the name of the diplomatic post where the visa application was introduced.


With kind regards,

Hasn’t your application been registered on ibz? If it has, I bet that is the response you will get. In fact the reason why you haven’t gotten a response yet was because they probably had closed for the day
