Expired residency card validity has been extended (again) until Oct 15th 2025.

The proposed process seems different from previous extensions "people with expired documents will be contacted by the Agency for Immigration, Migration and Asylum (AIMA) for the payment of the renewal fee, which will automatically give the document another six months of validity"
Further details to be published by the government

Please stay on-topic… this thread is about AIMA appointments after resubmitting docs.
There’s a whole other topic for the changes to Citizenship years:

Bonjour es ce que quelqu’un a pu avoir un rendez vous avec la nouvelle plateforme de AIMA ? .
Oui, je pense qu’il y a des examples sur cette plateforme. Cherchez ici et sur la chaîne suivant: https://community.nomadgate.com/t/awaiting-pre-approval-stage-2/45298/1
Bonne chance!
P.S. Je pense que la langue officielle de ce site est anglais.
Merci de la reponse , mais rien au sujet de la nouvelle plateforme !!
You should cancel your application too if it passes. D7 is a much cheaper way to get residency in Portugal.

Voilá les liens que j’ai trouvé avec les mots clefs: “got an appointment”
Initial application Sept 2022.
Did biometrics yesterday (June 27 2025) in Lisbon. Husband and wife together. No dependants. Mercan/IAS ran everything very smoothly. All documents had been resubmitted immediately after being requested byAIMA.
Note: Please make sure you have several methods of payment. My HSBC Global Money card worked well for my payment.
Good luck to all!

That is great news for you - thank you for letting us know. Please could you say when you received your notification of biometrics appointment and who your lawyer at IAS is?

Did you file a lawsuit at any point?
I did not file any lawsuits.
is your status changed to transferred immediately, my bio done almost 2 months ago. status change to transtted on the same day, but no news after that for card , is there any way we can check status of the card or any falta ?
Received notification March 2025.
Sorry, can’t name people (lawyers) on here without their prior permission.
I can’t check my status, the lawyers do all that. I just get on with my life - IAS have done all they can ( great job so far) and will let me know when the cards arrive , should be 2-3 mths .
Wishing everyone good luck !

No new biometric appointments heard for months.
Initial application sent in September 2022. Wife plus two dependents.
Two lawsuits (first one denied in April 2024; second one was filed on advice of attorney in October 2024 after a favorable superior court ruling would apply to me).
Submitted updated documents April 7, 2025…
Still nothing.
