Greetings Admin.
I am new to this thread, I apply for a German student visa at Abuja section but because of Pandemic I was told the Abj consulate is for special candidates and I rebooked another AP on 6th April 21 and school resumes on October 21, do I still have good chances for AD before October? Cat B.

Please any BSBI Students here??
Yes

I’m sorry I chuckled when I saw this. There is a large number of people awaiting interview date. Don’t you think they would have tried to connect with the embassy?

Yes, I have tried but nothing productive came out of reaching them.

You are spot on man!

For the benefits of others: When choosing a city to study.How big or financially endowed a city is shouldn't even come to play.

i will Choose BRS ahead of FAU

The immigration office in Nuremberg aint friendly at al. After ur first year you might be forced to block the complete money again ( It happened to me ). as a foreigner one of the most important things is to get your immigration matters right.

Also the semester ticket for any school under NRW state is second to non ( u can travel from anywhere in NRW to as far as hannover ( northwards ) , to kassel ( southwards ). you dont wanna miss out on NRW semester ticket.

Accommodation in Bonn and its environs are way cheaper than Nuremberg/Erlangen. As a student you will get 20hrs per week in Germany, so think about this.

As for opportunities, studying in a city doesn't mean that ur destiny is tied to that city. I studied in a very small city but worked in the big cities afterwards. All you need is a student job which u can find in most places.

Bonn has so many big employers like DHL Global hqtrs, deutcshe telekom, postbank, etc

You can be in Sankt Augustin campus in less than 30mins from bonn central station. you can even ride to school.

Having lived in both cities. I will choose Bonn anyday anytime.

Hi!
Unfriendliness does not equate to racism smiley
Economically Bonn > Erlangen and also there are bigger cities like cologne Düsseldorf Essen and Duisburg.

You will have to get a residence permit that is older than 6 months to apply at the German embassy in Cotonou. To be honest, If you haven't been living there don't bother cos they know about the situation in Nigeria and are ready to extort.

Also, avoid going through corners cos you will only waste your time and money considering the recent Nigeria/Benin Buahaha


Please, since Cotonou is a french speaking country, will your interview be conducted in French or English. I have not started my Germany application yet, will be starting this summer semester and I've been thinking of the best route for me. I can migrate to Benin (Cotonou) now and spend the required 6months before my Visa application starts.

Since my work is fully remote I don't think I have a problem as long as I have access to good internet and electricity. my only fear is that the country is a french speaking country.

Your interview can be conducted in English.
That won't be a problem.
But,the last time i checked,their immigration office in Cotonou has not repaired their central computer system since February this year.
I went there in January,gathered all the required documents in March,went to the immigration office to submit them,tori come enter.Till now,the same story.
Some of the documents have since expired.
So,you can't submit the documents without your data being taken.
So,make sure the system has been repaired before making any move.
And processing of the permit takes about two to three months,plus the six months stay.That's roughly 8 to 9 months waiting altogether.
I don bone them since.

I didn't submit any document to the immigration office because of the problem outlined in my previous update.
These are the ones i can remember-age declaration certicate from Nigeria,police character from Nigeria,police character from Benin republic,lab test in Benin republic,any bill payment receipt of your residence in Benin,certificate from the chief or mayor in charge of your resident area/zone in Benin etc.
Immigration officials go still come your house to still check whether the place u mention na where u dey live abi u lie.Using hotel as residence isn't allowed.
Yes,it was for resident permit.

Good morning bro, Please Concerning uniben transcript which institution did you send your transcript that was rejected by uniben. I use my brother company I'm getting a feeling they will not send it there. And also how can I get a soft copy to my mail like you did incase they refuse to send it. Because my transcript has been in the office of the deputy registrar for a week now. No posting. Please sir I'm in need of it.

Good afternoon, If any internal person is tracking it for you, just tell the person that you need a soft copy of the transcript. I received the hard copy through the company address I filled during the application. Don't worry, they will definitely send it to the company address you submitted.

I'm worried some of you don't even read the thread at all before asking questions. I'm sorry but if you did you'll know everyone in Nigeria is having this problem right now and nobody has the solution.

You don't choose appointment date yourself, just register, they will confirm your registration and you then wait for another email later that will contain the date for your appointment
