I really can't comment on how easy it is to get a job there. But I believe it depends on where you are (big cities or student cities will be easier than smaller cities) and of course speaking the language. Also other people have gone there and have gotten jobs, easy or not you should be able to get a job as well.

Student jobs average about €9-15 per hour (It can be more). It is also important to note that students are allowed to work only 20hours per week during the school session but can work full days during summer holidays

Gurus in the house please correct me if I'm wrong

Just like @konja44 has said...focus on the study work is supplementary, if you focus in job you will be dissatisfied. Focus on study, and money will be handy... more or less, 15 euros per hour is unrealistic.. just know you will work and be able to pay your bills if you are not big spender.

It depends on where you choose to work,
Restaurants = more or less than 20 hours
Interims = less than 20 hours except if you work well n your boss likes you, you do exactly 20 hours when you work with the interim (agent).

So in all kitchen, restaurant, fast food MAY get you more than 20 hrs..

You don’t need work permit anymore.. it’s now embedded in your resident permit..
Thanks

Hi @fikki1 and konja44

Please is it possible to use more than one sponsor for the student visa application?

Like can their combined incomes be presented so that the embassy approves the Annex 32?
Re: Anyone Studying In Belgium? by konja44: 12:20am On Jun 14, 2020
I don't think that is possible and I have never heard of that. But you can give it a trial.

Yeah, that’s the requirement... they want to test the level of English understanding( this includes; speaking and listening as well as comprehension) not just to speak or listen but to comprehend.

So basically, they will ask questions in English and you will reply, it usually not difficult.

Am back here.
Processing of visa takes between 15 working days to 3 months.
But I just hope it will take 10 working days this time
