Question

I received unlimited Single permit after 4 years * work market unlimited. Permit is valid until December 2024.

I will make 5 years in Belgium in September.


I have seen that if I apply in September for card D it take around 5 month, means I it will be beyond December 2024.

What is the options just to apply for renewal of unlimited single permit and after receive it apply for card D or in September apply for card B. But who knows how long it takes for card B to be approved.


Such a timeline mess....

Hi,

Apply for card B or recommend card L in September and then also also extend your unlimited single permit.

You don't know how long your B card processing is gonna take. L is possible to be approved earlier.


These timeline situation is there for most people, and many of us had multiple processes going on at the same time. I had my A card renewal and L card application being processed at the same time.
