Student can invite their spouse, the process may be a little bit demanding, but the provision is there, a bit of advice: before your spouse go for the appointment, ensure to have blocked an account and submit it along with the document, don't wait to be asked, if possible get also get a little regular job, so long as you can secure a contract duration, it can also increase your chances.

Benifu:
The site wrote “ copies of German residency title “ Is it only permanent residence and Eu blue card?? Can does with student residence permit also invite their spouse?
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 2:57pm On Jul 12, 2023
Please, what is the maximum duration someone can stay after a submitted travel date?
e.g. Assuming I submitted 13th July 2023 as a travel date and got my passport and due to some circumstances I am unable to travel within that period, how long after this date am I still eligible to still travel with that VISA?

Please house, is 3 months of Insurance accepted by the Embassy for the Family Reunion Visa?
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 5:14pm On Jun 26, 2023
As someone rightly advised, send them an email or call directly and ask if you know who is handling the file, you can even ask to speak to the person, it takes about 2 weeks usually, it is also possible that Lagos Embassy has already been notified without your knowledge, as in some cases the ABH will not inform your spouse that they have already sent approval to the Lagos Embassy. In your mail, remember to mention the date you sent the documents and I will suggest your spouse also attach a scanned copy of each document to the mail in addition should they have any issue with the previous ones.

Good Luck

For FRV, in an average how long does it take for ABH to give a reply to the Embassy? I do understand it varies from place to place, but ABH said my spouse's documents have already been forwarded internally for the recognition of our marriage, this is not clear to me how long this will take, any idea?
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 3:51pm On Jun 12, 2023
Please what are the regular documents requested by ABH that one can prepare for?
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m):
Thanks for the advice.

Biggybee:
Are you going to Nigeria just to start the whole process? Or you already did the process and only going for pickup?

If its to start a new process and you ain't going for any other special thing in Nigeria.

I'll advise you go to Switzerland and renew.

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

Hi all,

Please those that travelled recently from Nigeria to Germany and fully vaccinated, were you asked for additional negative result or filling forms online?

Please the verification fees of 150,000 does that cover for you and your kids?

Biggybee:
The visa fee depends on the current exchange rate.
When i went mid December, it was 35,000. I'll advise you take 40,000 incase it changes.

Please go with the verification fee of 150,000 too.
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 7:02pm On Dec 17, 2021
Probably you should have spoken about your experience, than using words like "faking" in your previous post, at least you've also heard from another person who had the PCR experience. Just FYI, my colleague is fully vaccinated and was returned because of PCR result older than 48hours, I also have someone who works in Lufthansa and confirmed it as a policy as at August 2021, So, its up to you to decide, its possible the conditions may vary by airlines and boarding points.

nuel80:
Except this changes came effect since Nigeria was declared a high risk area, but on my last trip in October, I boarded from Lagos without PCR test result, just my vaccination certificate was checked, I also did not get to fill out passenger locator form.
Travelers are always adviced to check with their airlines when booking
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 4:52pm On Dec 14, 2021
PCR Test of not more that 48hours before entrance is a must, whether vaccinated or not

arsenalthugangel:
Good day people, for travellers to Germany that have been fully vaccinated, do they still need a pcr test to board?

That is a general message they send to everyone, Just sent the travel date and insurance, they already know your passport is with them.

NLFreak:
Greetings everyone, I've been following the thread for a while. Thank you all the invaluable information.

Please I've been asked to send travel date, insurance, and my passport, but my passport was not returned to me when I went for the appointment. Is it fine if I send just the travel date and insurance with a note that my passport is still with the Consulate?

Thank you.

As you pointed out, On her day, She will go with seperate forms for herself and different forms for the Kids, Hope this is correct?

DebbyD1:
I understand that you put emphasis on the OTHERS but I will share my experiences regardless grin

When I went to the embassy, a guy came with two of his nephews who were minors and didn't have any appointment (because Paulinus asked him who had appointment for that day and he said he was the one). He had appointment for his student visa and his nephews were applying for family reunion but had no appointment. Yet, he was allowed to submit all three applications.

For my daughter, the only reason why her application was not received the same day as her mum was because she didn't have a passport then as she was just 14 days old. My wife was told at the embassy that minors don't need to book appointments online that if my daughter had her passport at the time, they would have received the two applications. She was then told that once she gets my daughter's passport, she should just send a mail to the embassy referencing her own application/file number and an appointment date would be given to my daughter. The day I sent the mail, it was around 2am or so, by morning around 8am, embassy replied with an appointment date.

If you are still not convinced, I would say you should go ahead to book the appointments for your children but when your wife is going to the embassy, she should go with them and their application forms. I'm certain she will be able to submit all applications that day. You can then cancel the online appointment afterwards.... my two cents wink
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 10:28pm On Sep 26, 2021
Regards the last two post about application for minors, can OTHERS please clarify the best option, Does my wife application covers for the minors also OR each of my children will need to make a separate application online different from my wife?
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 8:09pm On Sep 20, 2021
Thank you for this

esther49:
If you haven't added your family details to the DAAD portal then you should start with that. Then write to the DAAD contact person stating your intention.
My spouse is a DAAD scholar. He got a letter of invitation for me from DAAD. I called the Embassy and explained my situation, I was asked to apply for visa appointment then send my reference number and the Invitation Letter from DAAD via email. I got an appointment date within a week. You should get passports for your kids if you haven't.
You also need to have to more than a thousand euros in your account for when you get contacted by the auslander office.
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 10:31am On Sep 17, 2021
Please help ask and drop update, I really need the information for my wife. Thanks

pseudonomer:
I will have to ask. I know a girl on DAAD scholarship, she got to Germany in October(she was pregnant though), her husband joined her in January. This is confirmed by me.

What I guess really happened is maybe the Foreign Office is Germany contacted German Embassy in Nigeria. But I will ask her about the details later.
TravelRe: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by Atopet(m): 10:30am On Sep 17, 2021
Thank you, I have read and also seen that, however, It didn't indicate how the letter got to the embassy because the first application for appointment is always online and there is no place for any reference or attachment so far I've seen.

Juoflife1:
I read this thread from the beginning. I saw somewhere that your spouse will get a letter from DAAD, and this letter will be used to fast track the process. With DAAD, I think It's just 3 months. Read from the beginning, you will get answers
