Hello!
My employer applied for the single permit application on 8th August in Flanders region. I’m waiting for the work permit (WP) and residence permit (RP).

I provided a French address and the documents such as medical certificate and police certificate while my stay in France after studies. Now, my French residence permit is about to expire (20th October) before getting the WP and RP. So I have to go back to my home country and wait for the decision.

My questions are

What shall I do when my country of residence changes during processing the application? (My employer used the French address, but I have to move to my home country during the process.)
What shall I do if the address in single permit application and the one in the visa application are different?
Any impacts on my application decision?

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance!

Kuldeep Kumar48

Is most of you applied outside BE territory ?

How many days will it take who have applied flanders renewal of WP while living in Brussels basically just changing the employer from Brussels based to Flanders based, Application was submitted on 7th September ?

Kuldeep Kumar48

@Poolnoodle Did you applied from India or Belgium?

Region: Brussels



Application date: Between May 12 and May 18. A Belgian identification number was issued during this time.

No-reply: June 15

WP: July 13

RP: October 4.


Apparently the file was pending with the French section of the Foreign Affairs Service. Yesterday my representation appealed to the Dutch section as a first step in the case of 'unreasonable delays' etc. No reason for delay was determined and the Annexe 46 was issued the following day.


Good luck, everyone.

@Chabonisme I am not sure. It was sent to me the first time I applied for it. Since its a renewal it might be the case that my employer gets it.

arjunprasad2143

@Kuldeep Kumar48 Its the same process, you have to wait the entire processing time, almost a month for the work permit and around 8-10 weeks for residence permit

@mariem boug Hi mariem, congrats , I have a question , is it your employer who receives permit approval notice?

and did they informed you after work permit approval or directly at the end (when both work permit and Annex 46 was approved)?

thanks

sidsuman1811

@abdouhz94 Hi , I received no reply email on 4th August but haven’t received WP notification yet.

Sethurani

Hi, have sent my single permit application on

26 july received email saying application was accepted in good condition .


Today enquired immigration about my status , got an reply saying


"Next week, this application will be handled"


I dont know what i could understand from this, will they approve next week?

Guest8781

Hello @sethurani,


Which region you've applied?


It means, they might take decision on your application soon! Maybe, 3rd week of this month!

abdouhz94

@sidsuman1811 It's my employer who received the WP document and forwarded it to me.


You can ask your employer about status and updates.
