Now also it will be approved or rejected in 1-2 weeks by immigration office. Its happening for last 1.5 years.

Your application was forwarded because the local embassy does not have the legal authority to approve certain risk profiles, first-time entries under new system filters, or applications requiring deeper verification. When a Belgian embassy is unsure or encounters specific internal triggers, they are legally required to forward the file to the Immigration Office of the FPS Home Affairs in Brussels (Office des 脡trangers / Dienst Vreemdelingenzaken) for a final decision.

Even though you held a valid Belgian tourist visa in 2022, Schengen visa approval parameters and automated screening filters have changed significantly over the last few years. Having your application forwarded is a common step and does not automatically mean a refusal, but it will drastically alter your waiting time.

The process is the same across the whole of Europe.
