@umairsaeed01 If you are a Belgian citizen and she has been recognized as spouse of Belgian, She is not required to present this proof.

@ARMaliq

thanks for the info,

but I am not a Belgian citizen and we will most likely be applying for the citizenship together.

so by your answer does this mean that I have to apply first and then once I get the citizenship apply her F card and then apply for citizenship? is there anyother way ?

@umairsaeed01 Could be the only option but being not an expert, i would suggest to ask commune to see what they say about it. Hopefully someone who have been in the same situation could comment on your issue.
