Application for Card B after interrupted work in Belgium

@nyamani77

You are mixing the two concepts.

A :  B Card(Unlimited residence permit) to able to apply for it you have been lived in Belgium 5 year legally.

(Which you didnt yet.)

B : Unlimited Work Permit :You should have been worked last 4 years and should have valid employment contract to apply for unlimited work permit.

You will be asked 4 years of indivudial rekeningen / compte individual for each year in 4 quarters.

There is the summary of 4 years. If its not full fill the condition, your application will be rejected.

(Which you didnt yet.)

If i were you i would continue with A card 8 months after. (Pay attention to your first period in which status you were lived in Belgium.This is important to count 5 years)

Thank you very much,

but I don't understand this:

(Pay attention to your first period in which status you were lived in Belgium. This is important to count 5 years)

I came to Belgium in a scholarship paid by Belgian government with A-Card since July 21, 2020 and until this moment I have A-Card even with the new job, they only give me A-Card,

Also, based on my residence history in Belgium, it means that by July 20, 2025 the date where I will complete 5 years, I will be eligible for B Card, even with this interruption in work (it will be a total of 27 months of interrupted work + 24 months of Belgian training)?

How to apply? does that go through the commune? thank you very much again.

@nyamani77

You must submit your application to the municipality of your place of residence .

Some periods with a right of residence of limited duration only count partially or not at all:

Your stay as a foreign student counts for half. A search year does count fully. Thats why i said Pay Attention.

Your stay for 'exclusively temporary reasons' does not count.

Thank you so much

you seems fully aware about the process.

Appreciate your clarification really.

kind regards,
