Congratulations! As someone mentioned here sounds like SEF is processing the week of Nov-29 till Dec-4.
Expect chaos. We know how SEF has been in ānormalā times. Now ask them to change their process. The mind boggles.
Iāve been through similar. When I lived in the UK on a self-employment visa, the Immigration Department in Croydon moved to a new building across the street and at the same time upgraded their computer systems. Meltdown! No visas, no visa renewals, no passport renewal, or new passport issues were processed for nearly a year. None. And that was in the UK, arguably more efficient than Portugal. I canāt wait for the coming sh*t show. I hope Iām proven wrong.

Primary approval date: 3 Oct 2022

Family approval date: Still waiting
Congratulations, its been a long wait for you.
Just found out that the right method is to submit the dependant right after the main applicant (while my lawyer also told me to wait with that untill my application gets approved ).
Iām the one who opened the account in ARI, should I just go forward and add the dependants myself?
Yes please
Yes, this is how I/we submitted our applications : mine was the first one as the principal petitioner, and my wife was added three days later as a family member (I suppose that makes her a dependent)
You need a recent lack of criminal records report, correct?
Yes, it was a part of the submission. However, I started to apply before receiving it and uploaded it later when it was finally apostilled.
My application was submitted Dec 3, 2021 and my wifeās Dec 7, 2021. Hopefully weāll get our pre-approval soon. Our lawyer initially set the expectation that it would take 8-12 weeks, then in June she told us 7 months. It will be roughly 10 months if we get pre-approval this month.
Application was submitted on November 29, 2021. Still waiting for pre-approval.
I would second this perspective.
