Information regarding Polish Work Permit

I am am Indian Citizen. I got my work permit on 17th of feb2011 and I submitted my File on 31st May 2011 means after 104 days.

Merged: Information about VISA/work permit/dependent Visa

Hello All,

I am about to get the work permit (Type D) from a non Polish employer in Katowice following which I will be applying Visa at the Embassy of Republic of Poland in my country (India)

My queries are following:
1) What kind of VISA I am supposed to get with Type D work permit ?

2) If it's National D Visa can I apply the dependent visa (for my wife and kid) along my own Visa application? If NOT then how soon I can apply the same after arriving in Poland ?

3) What kind of Visa will be applicable for my wife and kid if I wish to keep them with me as long as the duration of my work permit/Visa in Poland?

Please suggest, its a bit urgent !!

Hello All,

Is there anyone who can please answer my query, it's really urgent?

Thanks in Advance :)
