Single Permit Processing in 2022

@nmsas1 residence permit will take approximately 10 weeks 😔😔

@nmsas1 Did you apply a highly skilled workers?

@Ritesh Gupta Hi!, I have submitted my application the 19th of July. I called the department who is processing the WP as I was a bit worried as well and it seems they have a delay with the files. Right now, they are reviewing the documents that were sent the 10th of July.  So, I guess we have to wait a few more weeks.

@Ritesh Gupta Which region did you apply to?

@Slhr, are you talking about Brussels capital region?

@corporateminorista No, it is Flanders region

Region: Flanders

@Ritesh Gupta What is "WA" ?

@Slhr can you please contact number of the WP department

Please share your timeline here

@single permit you are still waiting that long

@bc2910 no, they didn't.

@Azed13 How depressing. Hoping for a miracle that it somehow takes less than 10 weeks.

@Yas122 It was my husband who applied, but yes he did apply as a skilled worker and his work permit which he FINALLY received was issued on the basis that he qualifies as a highly skilled worker.

@Slhr Alright !

Any idea how long will it take ?

@bc2910 Flanders

It doesn’t seem normal. The authorities have to come to a decision within 120 days, otherwise you automatically obtain the single permit (annexe 47). Did the authorities request any additional information during the process?

Please, where can I find the article that talks about this?

@serdary4  Yeah you are right. Got an update that my WP was approved 1 month after application (13th July). Now waiting for the Annex 46

@nmsas1 yeah, it seems there is a delay at immigration. I was notified by the lawyer handling my case my WP was approved and sent to immigration about a month after the application (13th July). Now waiting for Annex 46 and it is now 7 weeks since the file was sent to immigration, we followed up two weeks ago but still waiting. However, when I checked the immigration website, they did mention that due to the huge number of cases tey are reviewing, they are talking about 9 weeks now so I guess we still have to wait

@patiltush You are right, my bad. The WP was received and was notified by the lawyer too. Now waiting for Annex 46

@ntyassine Still waiting, 7 weeks now for me

Hi everyone, I got my Annex 46 today!!

Region: Brussels

Submitted: around week of July 4th

"Right of work" approval: July 13th

"Right of residency" approval: August 29th

Good luck to everyone!

@Cy276 Congrats! Your timeline seems so short. Was this your fresh application?

So confusing how can the timeline be so different within the same region, In my case it's been almost 10 weeks after my WP was approved, and 4 months in whole!

yes @jenna24 , same for me , my timeline is :

no reply mail : 10 june

WP: 14 july

and still waiting the SP,

hoping to hear good news ASAP
