Did the person apply from Nigeria?
Spainever:
Application submitted online. Embassy requested where the person will stay doing study. He submitted hotel booking but asked for rental agreement. For those who got study visa please 🙏 advise

What's ideal option to choose for this question in the Videx form? " Do you intend to retain your permanent place of residence outside the Federal Republic of Germany?"

Better still he could defer his appointment at the embassy till he receives a new admission

As of I heard you can defer up till three times

With Good reason
recently they only accept once

Put your school address
CeeCeeO:
So is it best to tick No to the question, "where do you intend to stay?"

Thank you. I needed the clarification.

Hello house, the embassy is requesting for declaration of age as deposed by your parents or head of family.. What do they mean by this?
Re: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by KingThomas1(m): 1:43pm On Sep 24, 2025
Trust you are doing well today. Out of curiosity, only the documents mentioned in the checklist are require,d right? Specificall,y the original documents and some photocopies, things like the hosting agreement, health insurance are not to be printed since i already uploaded them right?. I got an AD for monday.

I am asking so I do not get any surprises. Thank you.

You will upload it after that recognition, in the employment something. No need of feeling the form.
Re: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by KingThomas1(m): 1:47pm On Sep 24, 2025
Was there an issue with your birth certificate?

Basically, the Declaration of Age in Nigeria is a sworn affidavit, also known as a Statutory Declaration of Age, used as proof of age when a birth certificate is unavailable for purposes like school admission, obtaining a passport, or registering for other official documents.

"Deposed by your parents or head of family" means they are they are the ones to attest to that.

Also, lest I forget, do those applying for a research visa go through the interviews like the study visa?

Thank you as always.

Your brother was born before December 1992, and on the checklist, if you were given birth to before 1992, the birth certificate will not cover, it is a declaration of age, so that's why your brother is required to submit it.

So stick to the information they require from you in the mail sent by the embassy.

If the parent don't have any available documents of signature to attach to the declaration of age ,does it mean due to old age they used thumb print of a things

Good day house. Please I’ve been trying to log into the new German student visa portal but I keep getting network issues. Has anyone here been able to successfully apply through the new portal? I’ll appreciate your guidance. Thanks.”

Are you using MTN? You could try a different network provider.

good day guys
i’m in a quite dilemmatic situation
i recently gained admission to a university in germany for my masters (summer 2026), but i haven’t applied for visa because i'm still working on sorting out the proof of funds part.

i just begun application for the DAAD scholarship for 2026 session but i don’t think it will be ready before summer 2026. also the waiting time for visa takes close to two years for approval. my school says admission cannot be deferred.

what can i do please?🙏

As of I heard you can defer up till three times

With Good reason
In a situation whereby the school does not support deferral at all (eg RWTH Aachen), is it advisable to have gotten another admission letter before the visa appointment date? (this is because the original admission letter used for the application would have expired before the visa appointment)

won’t the person be penalized at the embassy because it’s a different admission letter (even though it’s the same school, but a different admission letter date from the one used to originally apply for the visa application)

damn, i’m going crazy! please come to my aid.

Which MSc courses can someone with a BSc in Accounting take that are taught in English? If you have any school recommendations, please share.
Re: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by Fwonder123: 7:57am On Sep 28, 2025
Is it the original or photocopy your cousin submitted....NIN
Fwonder123:
Thanks
Re: General-german-student-visa-enquiries Part 8 by HudsonTaylor: 11:15am On Sep 28, 2025
Bro Chill...relax. We understand your situation, I guess like you said,you just applied recently using the consular portal.

If your school doesn't defer,no need to Panic,just let the Admission go. The most important thing is that you have registered on the portal and are on the waiting list.

The Embassy is fully aware of the Waiting period,so nothing like penalizing cus obviously the Documents you uploaded would have expired as at when they will call you for an appointment. You just have to reapply to the University(Probably when you know your appointment date is getting closer)

The Embassy is still in 10th Dec 2023.
So chill,don't Panic. You can also source for Scholarships which will make the process faster for you.
