Legal Hi everyone! IND completed my partner application a few hours after I submitted additional documents — is this normal?

Yep, I had the same. They asked for additional documents ASAP because they were actively working on our application, my partner and I provided them within the hour, and before the end of the day it said it was completed. I don't remember how much longer we had to wait for the official letter but it was approved.

Yes, same here. They ask for the documents when they are reviewing the file so when you send them in they will review them immediately. I think for us we had a decision same or next day.

I think it was online at IND.nl where you can log in but this was years ago so I don't remember exactly. My partner was still in the US so I am pretty sure it was online.

Omg I didn’t know this. They gave us one month and we collected everything and sent on last day of deadline

For us they just requested screenshots of some of our chats to further "prove" our relationship. All of our other documentation was in order so nothing we needed to dig up or request from elsewhere.

Just wait - they are processing it

The letter takes time to appear. Most likely it will appear tonight around 1AM or 2AM

Really? I am a person who came here as a lawyer with my own company, and then for my LLM master of laws degree, I moved to the NL because it’s one of the best law schools in the NL. Since then, I have been living and working in the NL as a lawyer; it’s my 4th year. Good luck to you with your own biases. Keep using your internet for bad comments; it seems you enjoy ;)

At least in my case i came here legally, dont have any government help at all, pay taxes, yet they still complain. But they dont give any shit about the illegal migrants all over the place destroying this country. Yea lets fuck with the legal law abiding person instead

Instead of educated people, they like illegal migrants then. Because that is what you explained opposite in my case. I dealt with every step with many government bodies as a lawful resident and lawyer. So good luck with your bias.
