Hi.
I have applied for reunification visa to join my husband in brussels.
I heard it takes about 6 months!!!
Lawyer can be useful to expedite visa process?

Are there any ways to getting faster that?

Dolevo

6 months is the worst case. It won't take that much. I don't think lawyer can do much about it.

Hello, Bersha.

May I ask what that lacking document was in the case of your kids?

Thanks!

Hi Mozart2017!
The lacking document was their health insurance.. I missed to include it under their name... Their visa is ok now... I got the result Dec.15... 😊😉
