Fefeeee:
yes, summer. The usual diplo website, can’t remember exactly

Fefeeee:
10th february

Seyitej:
Yes, in fact I got rescheduled twice.

I mentioned to the embassy that I needed new AL, so I got 4th of March initially.

They now rescheduled me on their own to the 1st of July, I think because I mentioned it will be winter admission

profsomebody:
You still don't have an appointment?

Chriswazo:
Wow, so fast

1. Search for degrees in Nigeria. If you can see yours, then no need for anabin. For example, B.sc in Sociology should be on anabin under degree search

2. It's part of the checklist if you're going for interviews

3. It has to be a job in your field, unless you're applying as a tech professional

4. You have to show proof of your marriage definitely. She must apply and have A1 German, and also meet the requirements for OC. BA covers one person, so you need two or two SL.

Fefeeee:
was shocked also

I also had that problem but I was able to provide source of funds by combining the person's employment contract, work certificate and account statement highlighting all the funds that came in to make up the amount all in one pdf. Hope this helps.

Chriswazo:
How long did this verification process took for you?

Mehn aswear Fintiba is mad. For people planning on using them, factor in their delays in the name of verification fund.

I don't know why money sent from Germany to them would need verification, domestic transfer.

Wish I knew this before going to them, rubbish

jawslyon:
My transfer was from Nigeria but didn't take long to reach them 24hrs for transfer and for verification of funds, the overall process plus rejection of the first source of funds document and the resubmission and the acceptance barely took 2 days.

I understand why they want to confirm and do thorough checks. We are sending high amounts of money from a high risk place where money laundering and such is prominent. Even if we are sending it from Germany, how did we get such amounts of money?

I understand that the process can be frustrating and anxiety inducing especially when your date is getting closer and closer but it is needed for due diligence. Even when doing Transfers from any bank in Nigeria, they ask for source of funds. They don't flag it cause they have your account history and details to verify on their end.

For the others reading and are not sure which blocked account provider to use, just make sure to remain calm, do your research well, plan for any setbacks so as to avoid being blindsided and reach out to the people on this platform for more information if you're still not sure. They have been really helpful for me trying to understand the whole visa process.

I just got this email from the consulate

“Dear Sir,

With regard to your visa application, we kindly request that you submit the following documents to the Consulate.

Proof of incoming insurance that covers your stay in Germany for 180 days or statutory health insurance or private health insurance.

Please also indicate your intended travel dates in writing, keeping in mind that your departure should be scheduled no sooner than 10 days after the date you send us the documents.

Do not buy your ticket until you receive your passport with visa in it!

You may either forward them via courier service or drop them directly at the gate of the Consulate.

A print out of this mail is necessary in any case

We appreciate your prompt attention to this request.

I got to the consulate pretty early, around 6. Paulinius hadn’t started his shenanigans (He made a lady cry though). I went through the gate and was answered to first because I had printed out the checklist from the website, so everyone pretty much used my checklist. The arrangement was the original and one photocopy, you arrange the originals and the photocopies separately according to the checklist of the diplo site.


I think the person that conducted my interview was a newbie, she was laughing and smiling all through, a young lady.

She asked
1. Date of resumption
2. Uni and course
3. How I got admission to the course, because I was coming in from another field and the course is extremely competitive.
4. Definition of my course
5. Why did I pick Germany

Then all to my surprise, I was given an intensive written test, printed out, theory and German. Basic IT questions like the function of an operating system, different types of computer networks and also math questions. The whole interview took almost 1 hour 30 mins.

The lady was extremely friendly which helped a lot. She told me the processing was going to take about 10-15 working days.
