July 2026: what an agency snapshot says about residence-card queues

We received a small operational snapshot from an agency about voivodeship-office queues in July 2026 and added it to the wait-time map as community-style timeline signals. This is not official UdSC statistics and it is not a guaranteed timeline, but these observations are useful because they show which submission cohorts are currently being called for fingerprints or receiving decisions.

How we converted it

The snapshot used wording like “the office is now calling people who applied in this month” or “decisions are being issued for applications from this range”. We did not create a separate public source block or expose source-specific counts. Instead, we converted each observation into an approximate timeline point: the midpoint of the submission range and the snapshot date as the fingerprint or decision moment.

What changed by city

How to read this

This snapshot does not replace official deadlines and it does not mean your case will follow exactly the same path. It helps with the live queue: if an office is now calling the month you applied, that is more actionable than a generic “wait for a summons”.

We will keep blending external operational signals with user reports and official annual workload, without publishing small raw sample counts. The map’s job stays simple: give people a realistic wait-time anchor for their own voivodeship.

This is not legal advice. Laws and office practice can change — verify with the source or a lawyer.
