Thank you. Any idea of what the success rate looks like? I'm considering cancelling my study vusa application for this but don't want to shoot myself

Don't cancel your study visa. No one has been rejected from Nigeria so far

Jonty8:
Pls update on AD for this week

None yet!

AgentONE:
I did during my time.
I swore an Affidavit at the court, then a newspaper publication for the change of name.

I added these to my visa application and I didn't have any problem whatsoever.

Did you add the newspaper page where the change of name reflected, if yes, was it in the original document file?

Please, is there any age limit that someone will get to, and it’ll reduce the chances of him or her getting a visa as an undergraduate. Like, someone going for a second degree.

Not at all, as long as u av a good reasons i mean reasonable reason for going for another bsc with proof

Some bsc courses are like continuation of some people's career....sometimes it not abt the degree, it's about the course

Is it possible that the Embassy didn't give date last week?

Hi everyone. I am trying to book an appointment on the German consulate website and part of the requirement is a birth certificate. I don't have a birth certificate just an affidavit. Please how do I navigate this?

Chaigogo22:
You will need to do an authentic affidavit for change of name for your birth certificate. Also if you were born before December 1992 and have an NPC birth certificate (the green coloured one), they would likely reject it and ask you to do a declaration of age, backed by your parent or a family member older with 15 years.

Please when you mean backed by your parent, does it also entail attaching their ID to it?

They won't let me book an appointment for the opportunity card with my study visa application active.

Then just wait for the study visa

I hate to be a bother, but please does this imply that the opportunity card isn't quite as promising as the study route? I'm just confused because 1 year + is a long time, and I also don't want to jump into opportunity card because of it's faster timeline only to see it's not worth it.

If you don't get a job after one year, you're to comeback to Nigeria. So if you don't know German and you don't have experience, your chances of landing a role is slim. So think about this because you choose the opportunity card

Pls did they give anyone appointment this weekend?

Thank you! I had thought about this but imagined I could also apply for studies while there to buy more time in the event I need to buy time. I believe appointments won't take a year plus over there, right?

Anyone gone to the embassy recently with private university, where you asked to pay the tuition fees?

Please for those that went or u know anyone that. Don't need a generic answer

I have just received my blocking confirmation from Fintiba and I noticed that it says €11,209 instead of the €11,904 that I transferred. Is this the same for those who used fintiba or is this an anomaly?

No it won't. its a matter of weeks. You basically work in to submit your application for visa change of status if you have everything ready. This is depending on your city though

use another email to book for the the opportunity card

Please for student visa what kind of travel insurance is advisable to use? Can anyone advice please

Hi Guys,

Please I just received my funds in my Fintiba account but I don't have the blocking confirmation yet. Because I am from Nigeria (a high risk country), they asked me to upload some documents for verification, which I have done but the verification process will take two weeks.

Can I please go with the print out of my profile since it carries my account balance in Fintiba.

Don't yet print, wait for blocking confirmation. It is the confirmation they want at the embassy. It will not take up to 2 weeks mostly 2 days. You will probably get the confirmation by Thursday give or take if your documents passes their checks.

They are right. That's the best advice you can get cause if you go there with incomplete documents, they will send you back. But hopefully it can happen that Fintiba can send it this night around that 2 am.

Just make sure to keep your eyes on your email for updates.

Thank you guys. But isn't it too late to postpone my appointment?

And I'm also not going empty handed. I'm going with a print out of my profile showing that the money is in the account and all necessary documents.

U can print your Fintiba statement of account, if has reflected there.

Secondly, Fintiba might ask u for source of funds

Email to reschedule. I am currently in this situation, they did not attend to me even with the statement of account with the full blocked amount, now i am waiting again.
