Visum Alert!!!

Hello all,

To God be the glory! Finally got my visa on Friday. And I just have to share because in a lot of ways this group helped me when d tide of helpless, impatience and anxiety overflowed!

My timeline...

Sept 2021 __ application for appointment

Sept 2022 __ appointment invitation email

Oct 2022__ Visa Application/Interview

Dec 2022 __ Email requesting payment for verification

May 2023__ Lawyer Visitation

July 2023__ Verification Complete Email

August 2023 __ Mail from Aüslander for payslips and form for employer signature

October 2023__ Request for more documentation by the Aüslander

Then it was Ghost silence! We called the Aüslander in November and we were told it had been approved on their end and the delay was from Nigeria. My spouse had a lot of reservations about calling them in Nigeria..so we decided to be patient.

However, I couldn't be so patient anymore when we had heard nothing by the 1st week of December, so I sent an email to the embassy and got a mail to send passport and travel insurance.

7 Dec__ Sent Passport to the embassy

15 Dec__ Received Passport

I am so glad this has finally come to an end. I feel the waiting was the most challenging aspect of the application!! Hallelujah it ended in Praise!!

I hope this will be helpful to someone!

All the best people!!!
