Hi - you’ll find numerous threads on here that address your exact questions… > [@Share your status about recent Massive biometric appointment](https://community.nomadgate.com/t/share-your-status-about-recent-massive-biometric-appointment/74500): > > Hearing AIMA is sending out biometrics appointments massively, but only for main applicants. Can we use this thread for everyone to share what’s your situation? I applied this Jul, but hear nothing from lawyer/agency yet. > [@AIMA Appointment --\> Did anyone manage to schedule appointment after uploading the documents again](https://community.nomadgate.com/t/aima-appointment-did-anyone-manage-to-schedule-appointment-after-uploading-the-documents-again/68726/370): > > I’m trying to see a pattern on how biometric appointment dates are being set. Two theories are: Those citizens of countries without free travel to Portugal without a visa are getting later appointments to provide time to apply for a visa. Applicants with dependents are being processed first as (my guess) the primary applicant needs to first be approved before dependents get a biometric. Because of the 2 step process family primary investors are getting bio appointments first so they can wrap… > [@Awaiting Pre-Approval (Stage 2)](https://community.nomadgate.com/t/awaiting-pre-approval-stage-2/45298/2801): > > Finally we get our appointment for biometric collection with AIMA ON 1st of April 2026. We submitted our application on Sep 2022🙁. Appointment now for main applicant only still waiting to know about the other family members. > [@Two Cascais?](https://community.nomadgate.com/t/two-cascais/74537/6): > > That is the one! Totally do not understand why clicking the link in the letter took us to the Cascais in Algarve!
