Hi all,

I wanna ask a question to see if someone is in the same situation.

My work permit : 05 septembre 2023

Does anyone who have received the wp after 05 septembre have already received his signal work ?

Thanks in advance

@junaydcheriti as I know, it is allowed to get Annex 49 after the work permit is approved but the best is to contact with the stadhuis. You will most probably need to change your residence card there so you can handle both subject at once.

Raumdeuter

Hi All,

can someone kindly explain what the status "Positive decision work" means...

is that the granted work permit or what exactly?


I would really appreciate it, if someone threw more light on that statement...

LarMai

@Raumdeuter

Yes it means the WP is granted indeed.


Congratulations

@inesdh

Hello Ines,

Did you submit your request from belguim or other contre ?

inesdh

Hi @Crashmed


No I am not based in belgium.

Crashmed

@inesdh

Good luck, Ines! I know two people (from Tunisia) who obtained their work permits at the end of September and received their  residency on November 10th and 14th, respectively. I got my work permit on September 5th, and I'm still waiting for my  residency document. Could you please notify me once you receive your residency? Thanks!

Crashmed

@junaydcheriti

Did you have answer to your question please ?

inesdh

@Raumdeuter Is it a university or research institute?

LarMai

@Crashmed How long did it take for you to get the WP after the no-reply email?

LarMai

@Raumdeuter Congratulations  !

Raumdeuter

@TracyTracy

No, it's a company... However to throw more light, I was already working full time since last year with a search year residency with this same company.

TracyTracy

@Raumdeuter Thanks for your info and congrats again! It's really fast, as according to my previous knowledge, I thought only uni or research institute would be this quick.

so long, almost half a  year??? stil no RP ???

RolandinBE

@khaled.keron If they don't reply to you for at most 4 months, your RP should automatically approved with Annex 47. I suggest you ask your company for the status. Please update your case, I am also curious about this situation since the single permit has been very slow recently.

khaled.keron

@RolandinBE Thankyou a lot.
