Single Permit Processing in 2022

@bhagwanbsr

Congratulations

I have a question by the way.

How did you know that your WP has been approved. Did you get notify via email or were you informed via HR?

@Moazzam Tahir

authorities does not connect with employees.

Email for both WP and SP approvals are sent to employer only.

@bhagwanbsr that's not exactly correct. If the single permit applicant put down a foreign address on their application, the single permit response (annex 46/47) will be sent to both the employer and the applicant's address abroad. It really depends on the case.

@bersine hi I got my Annex 46 on 6th but came to know today from my employer that too when I drop an email to them yesterday.

@DGB_ hi.. i still have no update. Waiting for annexe 46.

@maharaji1984 lollll I agree which city hall is that?

Hello everyone,

My timeline is as follows:

Brussels

Application: 5.10

WP: 10.11

RP: waiting

I have two questions. 1) I have an appointment in the TLS centre in December/January; is it okay to apply with WP and without annexe 46? 2) Due to my start date in WP being 1.12, can the employer extend the start date with Bruxelles Economie et Emploi?

Warmly

@AA21  AFAIK, The employer can always extend joining date depending on issue of annex 46.

Hello everyone,

I can see that Flanders and Brussels are already issuing RPs to applicants who got their WPs in October, and this leaves me wondering about the order of priority at the Immigration Office (I have applied as a highly qualified worked)

Friends, we applied on June 20th, no information mail has come, I've been waiting for 5 months, what should I do?

@narcinz92 received my annex 46 after 3 months and 25 days. Chased them once. They are Too slow.

Hello, is there any EU citizen who waited long for residence card. We applied in October (Antwerpen) and i am following the imigration desk, they are still procesuing the aplications from September. We applied like new in Belgium for living and working, so i suppossed we are waiting ID card? I'm worreid because we only got no reply answer at 14 th october and that's it. I 'm sending mails and nothing. Thank you

How can I follow a path. If there is no rejection for 4 months, will there be an additional 47?

@amansoalie Hello, when did you receive your WP and RP?

Thank you

Hello guys , any update on bruxels region ? 

it’s becoming stressful !!

@Newbie mom

Not just you. I check my mail every hour. I don't even know what to do again.

I am just curious if there is anything else they are looking for again, especially for some of us who live here and have details of our previous years with them, or is it just a norm that they must wait for 3 to 4 months? Several questions just crossed my mind without an answer.

Please let me know if you have any responses.

@VICTOR chosg I have a question please, even if you already live in Belgium and wanted to change employer you still need to wait for the new single permit to start working with the new employer? You can't just start with the WP?
