What if the SL isn't available on interview day but it's been applied for?

Do they accept proof of application then one can send the letter as soon as it's ready after the interview?

This used to be the norm but lately, especially those that went for interviews this past week were not allowed to be interviewed.

yezzyshow:
Please can I use the certified true copy of my documents done since 2019 to process application this year or will I have to do another one?

Guys please ur advise?

Chriswazo:
Natürlich bro

Ye this was the case before. Currently in the appointment mail sent out, its stated that incomplete documents will not be accepted and it’s not possible to submit additional documents after the interview. This was the reason I wanted someone who has interviewed this month to give their experience. Maybe @Hannania can assist with more info.

Currently, you won't be interviewed. They'll ask you to go back and send an email to the embassy to that effect. Only if you miraculously get past Mr Paulinus. They're send a default response for you to cancel and book again if you're not ready. So pray you get an extension.

For all those waiting, please get your SL or BA ready. It's better to have an expired SL than not having at all.

Hello house 👋 I have a SL on October 2023 and I don't know if it's still valid please advise me

SL is valid for 3 to six months from the date it's issued. So it expires and clearly stated on the letter

Please how long did it take to get your SL

We're talking of the validity before you use them at the embassy, not after approval.

This depends on your city. In some, you can basically walk in and get it signed the same-day. For others like Berlin, Munich, Ausburg, Hamburg etc, to get an appointment can take up to 8 weeks. Then another 2 weeks to get it signed and ready.

The smaller the city, the faster it is

What if the BA funds have been transferred but isn’t reflecting yet or only a part is reflecting if the payment was split (it usually takes 3-5 business days), what do you do in this case?

You're welcome

All I can see is, if someone has the BA already, he/she should block it and get it ready. They figured a lot of people come for application without SL/BA and even admission, that's why they're strict now.

If someone has already made payment, take the proof with you. Let's avoid any instance that will jeopardize the years we've waited for this.

They do check according to my information so try as much as possible to not let them notice

Ok. What is the possible way to prevent Paulinus from saying the mistake because it's just a minor error for instance 24.12.1997 the mistake is for the days not months or year

Good day, nairaland. I applied for german study visa and did the interview on Dec 2 2024. I have been waiting now and I don't know when the AM ( Acceptance Mail) drops. Please those anyone know how long I should wait? I applied with category a, I am a first grade student

Yes is problem. You must have your enrollment letter to show that you are going to attend or are attending. You can go ahead with the interview and submit this later. That is what I did

BigOG:
For those that has visited the German embassy in Nigeria for Study Visa.

If you have your admission letter(offer of conditional enrollment) but are yet to receive your enrollment letter would that be a problem?

Yes I am a student from BSBI. I enrolled last year September

MolecularSponge:

How is this logical?
Some people got admission for Winter 25'... Can they do get enrollment letter before their interview?
