Hi, After applying for Belgian citizenship, I got a receipt saying that my dossier is complete end of November. Then I got the police visit end of January due to my long hospital stay. When I called today, the commune told me that my file has been ...

@tunde4elohimThe delay is because the Foreign Ministry hasn't made a decision in your case. Once a decision is made by the Foreign Ministry, they handle the update themselves. However, since no decision has been made in your case, the law allows the ... Read More
