PlatinumPlato:
Admitted on 20th June.
Interviewed on 10th August.
AM dropped on 8th September.

All glory to God almighty.

I wanna start by advising all new comers to start reading from the beginning so you can get acquainted with all tricks and procedures involved. I started by reading some comments in part 2, I read all of part 3, then into part 4. I even read as I woke up for my interview that morning to be sure I learn anything new. The waiting period for my AM was not a good experience as I can not remember when last I fasted and prayed like that but its worth it.

Mr Bigman, Honourablesheyi et al really helped me and I so appreciate.

The slim young Frau shouted on me severally during my interview but now, behold my AM.

I am 100% ready to give back and I was greatly assisted here. PM me or write me via email at my signature, I will always assist as much as I can.

For those who just got Am, I used mansard insurance, its 22,696 or so for six months. Its about the best I can find.

God is great, I swear. lol

Congrats bro...Go to Deutschland and Succeed.

What I did was submit my passport, travel insurance + photocopy, printout of the a.m mail and a printout of my booking ticket from Turkish airlines(as indication of date of travel)... Hope it helps and Congrats.

Hello ninered,

Pls did you buy one way or return ticket? Thank u as I await your response.

Ifedee06:
So AM mail dropped today. Many many thanks to all the contributors on this thread.Like @ninered said, it's not that people don't want to contribute,the torture of waiting was something else. Besides,the interview questions were more or less same we've read on here.
Also conveying the wrong information to other folks based on one's personal experience wouldn't be appropriate. For example, I wasn't asked for the WAEC scratch card but my friend was asked to submit hers just last week.

For everyone that's still going through the process or has just begun,please read the pages diligently because there's so much to learn. Also, don't always take one person's comment as the only word. Try to gather as much information as you can and when you do go for your interview,go with all that is relevant.If they don't ask for it,you keep it.

Sorry for the epistle.

Interview on the 31st of July,
Funded on the 9th of August
AM mail 30th of August.

Congratulations

Sammyfissy:
Please do I have to send my Fintiba Blocking Confirmation (8640 euros full payment) by email again after submitting it during Interview at the Embassy.
Thanks!

I don't think its necessary if you funded fully before your interview. As long as the block confirmation you submitted covers the full amount, its okay. If required again the embassy will ask you for it.

Hello everyone, it’s been a while. God bless you all for keeping this thread alive.

Congratulations @ninered, @Emmiefadz and everyone who have gotten visa.

Am getting set for the visa interview (although it’s still about a month’s time), I have a few questions:

First, question 6 on the visa application form asks about “Intended place of stay in Germany”. I don’t know what to write here since I have not been able to get an accommodation yet.

Second, question 7 says “Do you intend to maintain your permanent residence outside the Federal Republic of Germany? If yes, where?”
I think I should tick the yes box and then say Nigeria.

I hope this is in order?

Lastly (for now), question 13a says “What are your means of subsistence?” I guess it is okay to just state that I have funded my blocked account.

I hope funding the blocked account 3-4 weeks before the interview is not a crime?

Question 13b says "Do you have health insurance that covers the Federal Republic of Germany? I don’t know what to write here.

I appreciate your answers, thank you.


NB: Please anyone at TUM? Let's relate

1) Write the address of your Faculty/department, then tick single apartment.

2)Yes you are in order

3)Its okay but you can also write it as Blocked account and financial support from Family

4)Its okay to fund before interview.

5)The answer is obviously No � except if you have any sha.

I hope this helps.

Emmiefadz:

Sorry for keeping silent for a while but the waiting was like torture.
A big thank you to all those contributing on this thread... I have been following this thread since September 2016 after I heard a small gossip from our landlord's son who was bragging about his sister traveling to Germany. After 1 bottle of Origin & a plate of bitterleaf soup my informant started singing

Despite the odds I made it!!..To all those pursuing the Germany dream God's favour and grace "fall on you"
I'm available for questions...

Congratulations!

lakesider:
Good day house

I already have my euro in my dormicillary account ...
I tried transferring into my block account today .the banker does not even understand ....
Please what's the best way to go about it.

Hi lakesider,

You can log on to your internet banking profile and do the transfer urself using the fx transfer window.

Its very easy and convenient.

I hope this helps.

neahyo:

Negro1986:
Good evening my E-family, I just received an email from the embassy this evening stating that I should send my passport and travel health insurance (ie my visa is ready). I wish to use this opportunity to thank all members of this forum for making this possible by your wonderful contributions and sometimes advises, both the Ogas in Germany and the so called newbies, I can't count how many times most of you paid for my Uni-Assist fee right from part 2, I may not be able to mention all your names coz your many, you guys know yourselves, may God continue to guide and be with you guys in all you do...

I did my interview on 30th June 2017, and I also funded my blocked account before the interview.


Please my Ogas in Hamburg , ur boy dey come oooo, make una help me arrange accommodation before October 1st. Though I have applied to Hamburg studierendwerk for accommodation in student hostel since May, however am still on their wait list ,so any suggestions for alternative accommodation is welcomed .....

May I also use this opportunity to remind those still waiting for their own interview dates and visa result to be hopeful that God is in control , at the end of the day, they all will also praise the Good Lord Amen..

Thank you guys once more ,,

Congratulations.

Good morning House,

Good day house,

Goldenboy007:
The new prospects for US foreign students

I have decided to write this topic as different from the topic I wrote on new immigrants. Why I separated the topics is because technically; Educational visas were not intended to be Immigrant visas but we all know that it has been an avenue for people to work and live in US.
Now this is an issue I did not want to talk about because it is not really an exciting news but I will rather tell you the truth of the situation.
The intention of most people that wants to study in the US is to get employed in the US through the H1B visa program. However under the new dispensation - there has been various silent amendments going on with the H1B visa program. My recent study of the job vacancies in the US now, 99% of companies now require you to fill the question about your visa requirement status. In the recent past , only a very few companies included that clause in their application process but now from my sample survey, almost all the companies now require you to state your work status. Some are bold enough to state in their application form that the company will not sponsor any visa now or in the future.
The current government had stated that it is changing the dynamics of the H1B visa program, no more lottery model, it has proposed that H1B visa would only be issued to highly technical foreign workers, also any company filing H1B should be for a worker earning $130,000 and above annual salary.( a safety net for Facebook, Google and others).
The truth is that the culprits are the Indian IT workers, they colonized the H1B program. They bring in so many people either highly skilled or not. You can count how many Nigerians on H1B compared to the total population on work visa programs. The implied notion of the US Government is to ensure that foreign workers do not compete with the US domestic working population for the low profile jobs.

Facts coming from inside the companies- especially the telecom industry that has the 2nd highest demands for H1B visas, there has been an indefinite halt in further processing of H1B visas for their intended foreign employees. I cannot say much for those already on H1B but there has been some internal business restructuring to remove the H1B holders from critical job positions.

The trend for most Nigerian students is to finish their education, get into an internship program and get hired as a full employee under the H1B program. US companies have been doing these in the past but recently they may allow you to complete your internship but will not hire you or some internship program now clearly state that the company will not file for visa now or in the future for the prospective interns. If you do not get an internship after your program then your prospects of getting a job becomes slimmer.
Based on this emerging fact, I will advise most of us planning to spend thousands of dollars on US education to re-evaluate because you will not want to spend that much and end up jobless in the US market.
For those of you on F1 visa already, my intention is not to discourage you but start being proactive on getting a job after school. However for those of you still planning, look for alternatives, Canada is still a good prospect.

I always welcome contributions and questions.

Thank you.

How authentic is this write up?

kingdaveid:
Global political economy, and you?

I have been admitted too.

All glory to God.

kingdaveid:
yeah got mine this afternoon from the department but not the official letter from the university, that one will come next week. the God that started your race with you will not bring you down now, trust me. i prayers are with you bro

Amen!

Which programme did you apply for?

Guten Morgen.

kingdaveid:
University of Kassel admission confirmation is out, and i got admitted. *dancing shoki*

Wow!

Congrats to you.

Did you receive a mail from them?

I haven't received any yet.

Still hopeful

kingdaveid:
Sent Uni Kassel a message yesterday on the delay, they replied that from 8th of June they will make their decision and inform applicants of their admission status. Just pray i get in, really having anxiety problems

Just calm down and keep praying.

GermanDreamer:
please I want to ask, i submitted my application online via uni-assist this afternoon and paid application fee and about to send my application via courier but I found out that I made a mistake in one of the documents uploaded, can I delete the previous and upload a new one?

I think its possible as long as ur application has not been processed by uniassist.

[quote author=Olanrewaju92 post=56975645]Guten morgen,
In respect to the second question, for interview just take along any documents u know (abeg, make e be original - at least to prove some level of authenticity and genuineness in the presence of the VO u meet). It would be worthwhile even ur birth certificate. I'm kinda sure the way they treat case of Mr.A might be different from that of Mr.B
All in all, our prayer is that our case be different (that's in positive feedback)

We shall all fall in this winter let our enemies go on holiday and never come back (Amin)[/quote

Guten morgen

Amen! This winter na our time ooo IJN

Thank you so much.

kingdaveid:
None yet, i even submitted my documents to uniassist like two week when application started. What i think is it will take about 5-6weeks since 30 of april. So we are just in the fourth week, hopefully this week or next

Do you mean uniassist forwarded your application on the 30th of April?

Olanrewaju92:
Your sponsor needs to make an appointment at the Ausländerbehörde in his city.

They would give he/she a date to come in, as well as the required documents to bring along to verify that he/she is suitable to be your sponsor for your visa. It cost 25€

Once your sponsor has fulfilled all the necessary requirement, he would be issued a document, which is the sponsorship letter, duly stamped (that is the sponsorship letter). He needs to send the copy to you as the embassy needs to see the original format. You can ask that he/she scans it before sending it via courier, as you would need it for requesting a date for your visa interview.

Thanks Olanrewaju for this detailed explanation.

But you didnt answer no 2 of my question , pls I need to know as my originals are currently not with me. Thanks.

kingdaveid:
Thanx alot

How far? Any news yet?

Good day people, happy Sunday to you all!

Please I have some questions that requires clarification

1. I have someone that is willing to give me sponsorship letter but he said I shd find out how its done ie the procedure...can someone pls explain to me?

2. Do I have to go for interview with the originals of all my documents? Esp study documents? I was reading thru the checklist and saw it highlighted.

Please people make una answer me ejoor, biko. Na beg I dey beg ooo

kingdaveid:
Please did anyone apply for university of kassel or via uni-assist, for this September masters programme. Just wanna know if u have gotten your admission replies from the schools

Any news?

UncleJudax:
For you to get discounted drugs, you have to visit a doctor, so their friends de visit doctor on their behalf?
Also not all drugs are covered by health insurance (e.g AOK)...it depends on the illness and what the doctor decides (colour of receipt )

For instance, if AOK covers a drug, no matter the cost, you only pay 5€

At least that's how it works with me, and where I live.

Thanks
