Please people that applied for family reunion appointment in October 2020, has anyone gotten interview date?

Atopet:
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?

I believe so. Every applicant regardless of their age need their own separate application documents. But one appointment is enough for a parent and her minor children. That's what I think DebbyD1 is trying to explain.

Please for those that applied for interview appointment in October, 2020, has anyone received appointment date yet?

Thank you in advance.

Fabulousaify:
They did. The affidavit will be sworn to by a parent stating that you haven't been previously married nor divorced until you married your spouse on so so so date

Can you please post a sample of the document? Just block out the personal data, I only want to see the wordings of the document. The court staff here don't seem to know what I'm talking about.


Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot.

U can get admission with your HND ro start a fresh BSc in Germany ��, but as for MSc u should look out for UK �� but most of them will require u to do a top-up program before u start the proper MSc program. This is the little i know about

UK USA
The process is straightforward in UK (if you wanna know more ask your question on UK thread)
USA you'll need Wes evaluation and write standardize test if you want to receive financial aid

Thanks a lot. I will ask in the UK thread.

Hello everyone,

My friend is just finishing her HND program at IMT, Enugu and would like to proceed with her MSc outside Nigeria. This is very important to both of us. Please I would like to know which universities she can get admission with HND.

All responses are greatly appreciated

I benefited from this thread a lot while trying to figure things out myself so, I decided I'd help with some info of my own.


I'm a software engineer and recently got an employment offer from a german company. I already knew the wait time for the appointment was insane so even before the interview process concluded, I was already looking for alternatives. I came across the fast track process for skilled workers during my search. https://www.make-it-in-germany.com/en/looking-for-foreign-professionals/targeted-recruitment/entering-working-in-germany/the-fast-track-procedure-for-skilled-workers/

Then when I got the employment offer, I informed the employer about the crazy wait times and the ability to fast track. Thankfully they were already aware of the fast track process so they were happy to go that route.

They requested that my degree certificate be certified and I did that at the Ministry of Foreign affairs in Abuja. After they had this and other documents (reference letter from past employers, passport data page, mawista health insurance), they applied for the pre-approval from their end. I can't say exactly how long this took because I don't know when they applied but, I sent the final document they needed on October 15, 2020. They also sent me a bunch of documents I had to sign and get back to them.


The company informed me they got the pre-approval on November 2, 2020 and I applied for an appointment same day using the WITH Approval link. I got a response for an appointment same day as well for November 20, 2020. Went for the appointment with all my documents and some extras that the company sent me to submit along.

At the appointment, I made a mistake by not photocopying the extra documents the company sent me. I assumed they'd take it as-is and tried to explain the company asked me to just submit this alongside the application. But the man that attended to me was very agitated by this because according to him, they're not "original documents" and I needed to have copies. It was all a lot of documents and making two copies of all made no sense to me (I didn't tell him this lol, I just stopped talking because he started saying I was arguing even though I was just trying to explain).

Long story short, I only gave him the documents I had copies for and he added those to a docket/file and gave me to take in. But I still went in with the other documents. At the appointment the lady asked questions about why you want to go, how you got the job, future plans etc. Then she specifically asked for a document which wasn't in the docket, she said if I had it, it would be an instant visa approval and she kept repeating the German name of the document. I looked for it in the documents the company sent and I found it thankfully, it was the Federal Employment Agency approval (not to be confused with Vorabzustimmung or the "pre-approval" ).

She also complained about me not having copies of that Federal Employment Agency approval document but she took it. I used the opportunity to submit some other documents the company sent that I thought would help, like university degree recognition stuff.

On November 25, I got the approval mail and was asked to submit health insurance plus travel dates. Submitted the documents by November 26. The consulate sent back my documents by December 2, 2020 but DHL delayed and I got it all by December 4, 2020.

Congratulations. Would you know if the fast track process would also apply for family reunion? On the website it says it would if the couple are both outside of Germany. I'm asking if it applies with one person already in Germany

Hi everyone,

I got a job as a software engineer in Germany and am able to get the EU blue card too. I would like to bring my family over from Nigeria. Does anyone know what the process is like and what I should do?

I saw at the embassy website that the earliest date my family can get for Visa application is November 2021. This is incredibly long time. Is there a fast track process or anything I can do to shorten this time?

Thanks for your help.

toystars:
I am "the spouse" in Germany. And no, I am not a blue card holder.

To be honest, I really don't know why it took so long. Waiting for appointment and documents verification take most of the time. After verification is confirmed, it takes an average of 2 to 3 months.

OK. Thanks for your response and please forgive my presumption.

toystars:
