Post new topic

Hi All,


Just want to post here as a master thread where you could just share your timeline of applying for an F card based family reunification with a Belgian


Please indicate clearly if it is reunification with a Belgian spouse or a Belgian child (as even you still live with your spouse, it is recommended to apply based on your Belgian child for simplified requirements).


The duration will be 6 months and if you got it shorter than that, please share.

After approval of visa D family reunification,we just went to the city hall and requested for F card.


It took only 10 days I think.


In my case: married with Belgian spouse
