Can someone who had his first degree in English language apply in German Uni with letter of English proficiency from the school?

Some schools are strict on requirements. Best is to send the school an email requesting for a waiver. During our own time, it was common to use a letter from your university, nowadays I see them requesting Ielts of 6, 6,5 and 7,5.

Hello bro, I am a software developer. Been waiting for this chancenkarte since last year. In fact, I shunned UK MSC last year because I have hope on this Opportunity Card AKA Chancenkarte.
I have a few questions though.

How do I prove my years of experience? Will my employment letter and pay slips suffice? I can’t ask my current employer to provide me with any form of letter because I don’t intend telling them that I am leaving until my visa is sure.

Can I use a letter of proficiency in English language from my university as certificate of English language just like the German universities accept.

Anyone can respond to this please.

First of all, the chancekarte is a point based system and you would do anything to increase your points so as to increase your chances.

That includes your experience : You need a letter of recommendation from current employer, or what we refer to here as Arbeitszeugnis from previous employment. Both of them are not the same. You can try with employment letter. I think it should be fine, but you would submit any documents that will increase your chances.

Language skills : A2 German will give you more points, so if you haven't started learning, get on board and take your exam at Goethe institute. English skills of up to B2 : Toefl/Ielts.

I think they expect you to have some links to Germany : like previous visits.

Sorry, when did the person apply?

I think it's during the post corona time. She's doing Ausbildung as Krankenschwester. She changed from her her old hospital place and I find out that her number is not going anymore.

Hello Everyone, I just got my Goethe B2 certificate, (mind you I applied for an Ausbildung Visa early April 2023) met someone who also applied for an Ausbildung visa but in April 2022 and till now she hasn’t gotten any AD from the embassy
I have a series of Questions if I may….
1. How long does it normally take.
2. Do you advise I go do residency in Cameroon (if so how much time does it take).

I have a question for you about learning German in Goethe Institut. Was it worth it? I want someone I know to try their online class? Or do you recommend a physical class? How long did it take you to get to B2? How fluent are you?

Comes down to cost.
If you want to survey both in one... You'll pay and start afresh....

If it's same name on both, then just do a fresh one if cost isn't an issue but if cost is... Then do the other survey perhaps using your son's name or mum's name or wife's etc

The old one was done in the seller's name hence the reason of redoing it. I think there's not much cost difference.

I am in a dilemma. I bought two plots of land recently, one already surveyed and the other not. My question now is, can I survey both of them as one and or I should just survey the other land.

Or is it best to just survey the remaining land?

I look forward to your recommendations. Thank you in advance!

Good day all, I’ve been on the internet searching for schools for PhD in social work Germany but I don’t understand why their site is upside down in my eyes .
Please does anyone have a link I can use?

Their site is not upside down. It's one of the best structured site I have ever seen. And if you are going for a PhD, you can contact professors and postdoc directly for a position in their establishment. Google is also your best friend. Best of luck.

You can't live in a country without interacting with her people. German is a hard language, hence integration has always been a problem for the turkish and all other small communities living in Germany.

For me, in the beginning, I was like I don't need the language, until I graduated. The pressure was too much. I had to enrol even though I detest learning languages. I proceeded to learn the langauge, got a job almost at the end with my B2.

Some of the 2011 guys are still here, but the set of people that came with me have migrated to English speaking countries after getting their citizenship, or after their studies. The rest are in Germany, working and playing parents at the end of the day which is a difficult task.

Wow, this wonderful thread has gotten to part-8, what a journey, what a story.

Let me just drop this here, it may be useful to someone. For those who have gotten their Visa's and are already studying, try as much as possible to learn the language, before you finish your program. E get why!! Unless you don't see yourself staying back after studies, then you can say Eff the language.

If you are in category B and you don't have an appointment date, just use this time to learn the language.
I am shouting learn the language ohh, hmm what I have seen, and heard my mouth cannot say it all.
My German journey has been eventful with plenty of ups and downs; however, the language has been my secret weapon.
I have so much to write about, I'll probably open a diary thread and post the link here. You guys will have to excuse my use of English, it has been a long time I actually typed more than 100 words in English.

@Justwise I wanted to go back in time, the link you posted for part 4 was broken, I had to use Google. You are doing a good job. I hope @Seun is paying you for this ohh. I no wan hear say na awooof work.

Before I drop my keyboard, If most of you guys noticed, the first set of people who came to Germany, when this thread started 2011ish are no longer here, the country toughens you up, and you think only about yourself. I hope I can make out time and give back to the community.

Travel / Re: Life In Germany: What Is It Like For Nigerians Who Migrated? by Ndyoo(m): 5:31pm On Nov 02, 2023
Why are you so full of yourself? You got German citizenship and the earth should fall?

Dear readers,

The only reason she got the citizenship that early is because she's married to a German. I am telling you that if you also married a German and earns a certain amount (netto) per year you would get the citizenship. Netto is calculated here per household. But you just don't need marrying German, you also need to have the language qualifications and have taken the citizenship test. And you don't even need 3 years, you need 2 and half years depending on your region/state.

If she's to hustle it normally, as an asylum seeker, it might take 11 years or more or shorter if you married or got a German pregnant and you are taking care of your child.

If she's to get it as a student who transited from getting his/her degree then she needs to have residence permit for a certain number of years, have language qualifications of at least B1 before she can get it in 7 years (B2 - 6 years) depending on the state.

There is no straight way to it. Keep your head down. Get a work, do your work. Learn the language. Get integrated and you will be German and in most cases on paper 😂.

Keinbock:


First of all, SIT DOWN LET ME SCHOOL YOU:

First of all, I am a girl. I married a German citizen, which made me qualify for the citizenship. The thing you might not know, is that you can apply for the citizenship after 2yrs and 6 months if you meet the following criteria :
1. You don't have any criminal record
2. You are married to a German citizen
3. You have a job that pays you a minimum of 1490 AFTER TAX.
4. you have been gainfully employed for more than a year.
5. At the time of your application, you are still married to the said German citizen.

Research and research but if you want me to school you the more, then let me know. ( I might not have the time though)

I know you will also doubt it, if I tell you that I published a book in German a year after moving to Germany (it's available on amazon, by the way).

And your brain go scatter if I tell you how much I earn at 31.

I have a question for the Engineers in the house. Between surface wiring and conduit which one would be best when building a rented apartment (blocks of flat). Location is southeast (Onitsha to be precise). The engineer mentioned that surface wiring is outdated for modern building and it's not safe. But someone I know mentioned that tenants might want to rewire things when they pack into the house thereby destroying everything. Now I am lost if we should continue the dropping.

Your recommendation and comments is really appreciated.

Seem like Atiku would get at least 25% from SW, he will get 25% in all SS. Should he win majority vote in North, then he will be president elect.

Tinubu not only need 25% in NW and NE but need to win with at least 45% because the north always have the highest voters. Should he get 45% from the north, he will be president elect.

Obi will get at least 80% in SE, 40% in Lagos, at least 50% in SS, 45% in NC, should he get 25% in 4 NE and NW states, he will be president elect.

You need to be specific about your site location in the south east. There are distances and locations that you'll have to pay some abnormal fares. Somewhere in Oguta my client was offered #340K for 30 tons.

25/tons is 270k as of yesterday.

Your architect is not cheating you at that price. Distance should be put into consideration too.

If your 25 tons is 270K then I might switch to your contact. Because my supplier said that 20tons is 300K.

Kudos on your project.

At the bolded, I am interested in knowing why you said the BOQ prepared wasn't useful.
Was it that the amount budgeted for each critical item was inadequate or excessive?
Was it the material or labour estimation that was inaccurate?

I might be helpful.


For example, the cement budgeted was excessive by 50 bags for a stage. Labour estimation was x5. I can't contact the quantity surveyor anymore because I learnt he travelled abroad.
