Hi guys. Anyone who applied for a blue card in the embassy recently? How long did it take post interview before you got your visa. Thanks

Ebonyblizz:
same here oo

Hi, is this the same as Blue card? And have you gotten a response from the embassy? If yes, how long post interview did you get the response

Hi Guys!!

Can anyone share their experience of applying for visiting visa (schengen) in another country aside Germany.

I have been checking appoinment for Germany for over 3wks now and no date yet.

Please share your knowledge with me on any other country with smooth process one can apply through. I want my wife to come visiting while waiting for the Family re-union appoinment.

Did my Blue card interview today

My interviewer honestly told me that I need to be patient

Considering that I should have been in the UK since if I took the UK offer, it's kinda difficult to wait. But we wait regardless

Did the interviewer give you a period or timeline to expect a feedback?

If you are applied alone, 2 - 4 weeks. With family, 4 - 9 weeks.

Hello everyone. I applied for a work visa since May 20 and I’m yet to receive an appointment date. I understand that the booking site says the wait time is over a year, but I found out that several people were lucky enough to get appointment dates after a few days or weeks. The start date for my job is in July, so I’d appreciate it if anyone could let me know what I can do to get an appointment date soon in order to meet up (apart from the skilled worker route).

Hi everyone,

Travelling in a few weeks and wondering if anyone could share tips on how package foodstuffs like dried fish and palm oil. Can I carry along ghana-must-go bag?

Thanks

Avoid traveling with palm oil, it’s your first time entering the country, avoid whatever will lead you to unnecessary interrogations. However, most airlines will not let you check it in. Save yourself the stress and buy when you arrive there.

Avoiding stocking them with emails, such cases usually takes a very long time. And the court will tell you this if you had asked them, I haven’t heard any case where the outcome was less than 2 years.

AmisOsas:
Good day everyone. Trust you are all doing good.

Please I want to confirm about the health insurance coverage for Germany. So apparently, there's a question on the visa application form: Do you have health insurance that covers the Federal Republic of Germany - long term stay. Tick yes or no.
The visa being applied for is an Ausbildung visa which is a long stay- 3 years.

How can one go about this health insurance coverage for Germany. Is it a very important document for the interview.

And yes! Someone helped us get a Reisekrankenversicherung (travel health insurance)
for 1 month. Does this particular insurance answer yes for the question on the application form?

Otherwise, like I asked earlier, how can one get this health insurance coverage for Germany or can the employer be of assistance in getting this health insurance coverage for the person?

Thank you in advance. I await your response.

Tick yes for your answer. They won’t ask you for insurance certificate during interview, they will only ask for it when your visa had been approved, then you can get a 90 days visa and take up a long term insurance when you arrive the country. No one can legitimately live in Europe without an insurance and the embassy knows that.

Can you help provide food items to carry along with you and not to carry. Should it be in a “Ghana must go” bag

You can cancel and apply for blue card visa if you meet the requirements. I canceled after a month and applied for blue card. I got a notification from the embassy after 3days

Akhinoz:

I don’t know much, I only know I saved myself stress of carrying too much when I was traveling to Germany for the first time, you can carry any solid food items provided they are not fresh, they should either sun dried, fried or roasted. Package them well and you can travel with them in any bag you can check in, never in a hand luggage. But avoid liquid stuffs. That’s the far I know.

Thank you, Akhinoz. Unfortunately my salary isn’t up to the minimum requirement for a blue card

Hopefully, I get an appointment soon.

Happy Sunday!

Please who can confirm if document validation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Abuja is the same as apostille?

Also, has anyone applied for the skilled immigrant visa with their spouse? What documents are required?

Just received my signed passport. Thank you Jesus.

Everything from embassy appointment took 2 weeks.


From what I observed, recognition of certificate plus pre-approval letter makes work visa easier and faster x2.


Thanks to everyone who answered my questions.

Timbs001.. see you in Munich soon

This is related to family reunion cohorts. Blue card appointments are given preferential treatment.

My resident permit (Aufenthaltstitel) expires in 30 days same time as my passport. Is it possible to still use this Aufenthaltstitel (with 4 weeks validity) to travel to Nigeria to pick up my new passport and return to Germany in 1 week? I am eligible for an extension but need a valid passport for this.

Your reply will be helpful, Thanks

Let your relative DHL it to you. You will receive it in less than a week.
