Good evening everyone. I recently came across https://www.visahq.com/news/2026-05-18/de/germanys-opportunity-card-visa-goes-fully-digital-slashing-appointment-backlogs/

I would love to know what you guys think of it. those of you on the waiting queue, would you want to try this out. I am kinda confused

please can someone help answer this question . thanks

also, what date are they in currently. has anyone that joined after sept 10 being called?. thanks

Tifay:
Did anyone answer this question?

Can a primary school testimonial count instead of a primary school leaving certificate.

He was asked to submit the primary school leaving certificate but he doesnt have it he only has the testimonial

Please I learnt that for those who are to apply for student visa, they should use VFS global instead of the consulate portal. Is there any improvement in waiting time. thanks

Good afternoon everyone.

please can you guys help us by telling us if anyone who joined the waiting list around 20 August or so has been called. I think the last person that dropped update said he or she joined 13th of August. Thank you very much

Good evening guys.

Please in order to give us hope, has anyone that joined the waiting list as at 10th of August or later being called ,or asked to submit for preliminary review

Laryfrosh:
Yes. In terms of proof of funds. There are only 3 options: Blocked account, Sponsorship letter or part-time employment.

thanks alot for this

wazobeer:
I believe the logic behind their preference for part-time job as means of sustenance, is the fact that if you have a full-time job, you should already qualify for a skilled work visa or blue card directly, because Opportunity Card is strictly for Job Seekers in Germany.

So if you already have a job offer, full-time, it's either it qualifies you for a skilled workers visa or EU Blue Card directly, so you shouldn't be applying under Chancenkarte. So the embassy would deem it inappropriate for you to apply under Chancenkarte.

I think that was what also happened in the case of @Singlefile.

thank you so much for the explanation

gumroad:
So guys, I applied on July 31 last year. About two weeks ago, I was notifed to submit my application for review. I submitted it using my full-time work contract, but it was rejected. My formal obligation letter (sponsorship letter) was also rejected because it was not marked “NACHGEWIESEN.”

I was then given three options: either provide a blocked account, submit a formal obligation letter that is officially verified with the “NACHGEWIESEN” remark and specifically marked for the Opportunity Card, or obtain a part-time work contract instead of a full-time one, with a monthly salary of around €1,200 — not significantly higher and not lower. Getting the sponsorship verification can take quite a long time, depending on the German state where the sponsor applies. In my case, it took my sponsor several months.

I eventually chose the blocked account option and have now rejoined the preliminary review stage. The blocked account is the quickest and most straightforward path at this point. If you can afford it, it is probably the best option among the available choices.

Please I am confused regarding this part-time work contract. I believe one is expected to obtain such in germany. if that is the case, will full time not be better than part time. or the contract is in one home country (Nigeria)

Laryfrosh:
Chai! This is sad! 😢
How long were you given to submit your application? I think they normally give 14 days?
If you've gone through the thread, you would have spotted it out that full time employment can't stand for Opportunity card. How do you get a BA or SL within 2 days now? 😕


Omooo! After all the wait!!! 😢

Please when you say full time employment can't stand for Opportunity card, what category are you talking about. is it in regards to prove of funds or what please. will appreciate if you help explain better

You are on your own!!

how i wish I can like this comment 100 times

Adelawal2011:
Please there is no need to discard your application. When it's time for you to submit for preliminary review, you will have the opportunity to edit the form before submitting.

I am thinking the waiting time for the different visa categories are likely different. So if Opportunity card waiting time is shorter than that of employment, it may be in his best interest to reapply

elayomohammed:
Before applying for Chancenkarte, I have a running application for student visa. After aiting for over six months, just when I was expecting to be invited for student visa interview, I got an email from the embassy that they student visa application have been canceled because I changed my visa category. So i'll advice you ensure to only have one running application.

wow. sorry about that. thanks for the info

Lilyyyy:
For this, everyone gets it. for example if you join the waiting list 1st January, you will get the mail 1st of every month while you are waiting to reconfirm that you are still interested

thank you so much

Also, i recently got admission. I am scared of applying for student visa, as i already have a visa process in motion.( this opportunity card). can two visa processes be made, or it will lead to be being denied of both. thanks

Good morning all. Please on the consular portal, I can see that i am on waiting list, but i keep getting " you have not processed your pending application for 30 days. your application will be automatically deleted in 30 days if it has not been processed by then."

nwaobitex:

The sender email is GTRecruitment2025261@nlng.com

Thank you so much

You can get your health insurance at any stage, you can even bring it along on your interview day. However, I advise you to wait until they ask you to submit documents for the preliminary review. Make sure the insurance start date matches the date of entry you indicated on your VIDEX form.

I recommend Dr. Walter Insurance. You can register within minutes, and the confirmation will be sent to your email for upload. You don’t need to make any payment in Nigeria; simply choose the “future payment” option. You will only start paying after you arrive in Germany.

Good evening everyone. I am in the stage of doing Compatibility with ZAB . would love to know, at what stage do you do health insurance, and which do you recommend

Good evening. please i am considering buying fridge. how has your experience been so far
