Hello please what requirements and documents did you need to submit during your appointment considering your wife is a citizen


It was basically all they asked for on the checklist, pictures of us together, how many times we have met in the past, copies of her visas and travel stamps, my employment documents, marriage certificate with apostille, translated copies of marriage certificate, and so others

I am applying for a work visa and I already booked an appointment just two days ago.

How long does it take to get a date from them? I also lost my original WAEC result recently thou i have the photocopy and I already got my affidavit and police report, will this be accepted by the embassy?

@here

Is it possible for a blue card holder to apply for family reunion on behalf of their spouse in germany.?

I.e I'm in germany, I have a blue card and I want to bring my wife over. Can I apply on her behalf in germany? Or is there a way to speed up the process in germany by myself without the need for a 1 year wait ( if she has to book appointment all the way from Nigeria)?

I once had this problem in January this year, I had to travel to Turkey for the A1 exam, but the embassy sent me a mail when I arrived that they have arranged for me to take the test on a particular date at the Goethe institute in Lagos, I declined since I was already in Turkey.
I booked for 3 exams for different dates in case I don’t make it in the first attempt in Turkey, luckily I passed the test on the first attempt there and forgo the others and then flew back to Nigeria to get the visa.
Try and find out what options are available for you.
In my case, it has felt like the embassy don’t even want me to make it to Germany because the conditions on their website states that if your spouse is a German, there’s an exception to A1 certificate requirements, which was my case, I drew their attention to that paragraph but they insisted.
I wish you good luck in your try.

Thank you so so much

Luckily for me the Goethe Institut sent me an email that they’ve considered my request and have approved I take the exam 30th of this month

But it cost 74k Naira but it’s better than going to another country
About passing the exams I don’t see it as a problem since I score 78 in my first attempt

So I’m still going to prepare like I did

Wow! That means they were set to grant your Visa. They discovered that your A1 cert has expired with them. They now chose to request you to bring another one with a deadline! When did they send you the mail please?

The Email was sent yesterday the 25th November
Yes from the last email they told us they will ask for another A1 Cert if the visa is approved

That was when we asked them if I should get another A1

Please sir, how does one get the preapproval, from what authorities, im telling my husband about this and he doesn't know how to go about getting this,? I will appreciate a response please �

Yes, she will still need to go through verification. I got pre-approval for my family too but my wife had to go through verification. One of the advantages the pre-approval offers your wife is that she will be able to get an appointment quicker instead of waiting a whole year to get an appointment. All the best in your interview.

Please, How did you go about the pre-approval ? Can you share?
Re: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by bashito: 7:52am On Nov 30, 2021
Wow! My A1 cert was gotten in January. I don't have strength to go write another one o. They should just respond to me before it expires. Meanwhile, you can send a mail Aanu Oloke at Goethe institute. She will find you a date for the exam if she sees the mail from the embassy.

But these people have not even sent me a *verification completed mail*. Is it possible that my Visa will be granted without the mail? Or they still have to send it to me before my approval mail will come? I'm so confused.

I think you should send hard copy via DHL/courier. They hardly read their mails. I sent my residence permit requested for my family's VISA via email and I got no response until I forwarded via DHL.

Does anyone know if it's remotely possible to invite one's girlfriend to Germany?

I know that my friend in the UK sent an invite to his boyfriend and he was granted visa. I just want to know if Germany can allow me do that for my girlfriend.
