Hi Everyone, I hope you all are doing okay. I always feel bad when I come on here and read and dont get to share.

I have taken time to monitor this trend and I have noticed that it take between 19 to 23 months to get an appointment from the day you book an appointment. (omo no be beans oh).

so what I have tried to do that might help us all is to list out the months and the possible month that you will get an appointment.





Presently the embassy are on the people that book their appointment in May 2023 ( Noticed that from this trend)

May/June 2023 = March /April 2025

June/July 2023 = April/ May 2025

July/August 2023 = May/June 2025

August/September 2023 = June/July 2025

September/October 2023 = July/August 2025

October/November 2023 = August/ September 2025

November/ December 2023 = September/October 2025

December 2023/January 2024 = October 2025/ November 2025

January /February 2024 = November/ December 2025

And so on, so as you can see the pattern. I applied for an appointment in November 2023 and I already just set my mind to August/September.

I'm just working towards getting all my required document pending when the time comes.

I hope this helps someone.

We will all be victoriuous
I also applied Nov 2023, and I just received my appointment date this October so be on the lookout

VISA ALERT!!! 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃

01/08/2024
I got an email for my interview date

26/08/2024
I went for my interview

19/12/2024
I was sent another email to send some documents
23/12/2024


Congratulations Dear, so there was nothing like lawyers verification or verification fee ? I just wanted to ask
Thanks.
I went to submit the documents;
* Affidavit of Spinsterhood
* Pictures of your marriage ceremony (church, court and traditional) and other pictures
* A1 certificate
* Affidavit of Change of Name
* Affidavit of Reconciliation of Names

09/01/2025
My husband sent them a mail concerning the A1 certificate I was told to bring
20/01/2025
They replied saying the A1 was waived
06/02/2025
My husband got the mail at home to submit his documents
* Arbeitgeberbescheinigung
* Three months pay slip
* Work contract
* Bestätigung from his landlord
* Erklärung from my husband himself
10/02/2025
He submitted the documents at their office
12/02/2025
I was an email to send the A1 certificate again or Appointment confirmation proof for the next A1-exam
17/02/2025
I went to the embassy to submit all the copy of the emails I was sent to show that the A1 had initially being waived for me
21/02/2025
I went to Goethe institut to register for the A1 exam which I was told to do online although the lady helped me create a profile which is required before registering online. After the profile was created, I was told to go and make payment by 9:15am. When it was time, I made a transfer from my bank app, which was reversed. I had to go to bank to do a physical transfer, while I was about filling the slip, I got an email thinking it was from the Goethe institut but to the Glory of God it was from the embassy saying;
Dear Madam,
With regard to your visa application, we kindly request that you submit the following documents to the Consulate:
* Your Nigerian passport
* Proof of incoming insurance that covers your stay in Germany for 90 days or statutory health insurance or private health insurance.
I was so so happy, I can’t even describe how I felt that day but I really thank God.

My husband immediately got incoming insurance from ‘Allianz’ for me.
24/02/2025

I submitted everything at the embassy myself
04/03/2025
I collected all my documents through the courier
10/03/2025
I japa💃💃💃

I want to first of all thank God for everything, to my amazing husband I love you so much for your efforts and patience. Finally to all my nairaland fam, God bless you all and I pray that the Good Lord will help speeding the process for others waiting. Amen 🙏

I dont think that is true, for example A1 get expired and they can always ask you so send it when you have it, I am just saying, those. guys. too cane very crazy.

Have you finally gone for your interview, how was it ?

Yes
I forgot to mention that. The person that attended to me said they only request for a1 now. She gave me a deadline of next month, as for other missing documents she said they don’t request for it now, and it depends on your visa officer to ask for that
Re: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by hollameday(m): 6:01pm On Oct 06, 2025

There’s this person that listed a lot of questions back here. It’s within that scope. They just ask you the same question in like 4 different ways to see if you really are saying the truth. Mostly on your spouse. Things like date of birth, monthly income, age difference between you two, where the person stays

Re: General German Work And Family Re-union Visa Enquiries by MyAfricanBodyEn(f): 3:32am On Oct 14, 2025
Good evening all. Someone applied around middle of 2024.
But now the question is what will happen if she gives birth before they call her for appointment or before the visa is out at 1year 11months which will also be around mid of 2026. ie she had a baby before she could travel...

As soon as the baby is born, get the baby's international passport and mail the embassy to add the baby to the mother's application. attach a copy of the birth certificate and the international passport, and do not forget to add details of the mother and her application number.

Yes I have. Honestly it was a roller coaster. I don’t know if it is a new development but my interviewer was a bit harsh. Yelling about literally everything. She started first by complaining that my spouse’s documents were print outs. I wondered how she expected to see original documents of my spouse. She also complained some things that were filled on the online application form were different, like my spouse’s place of residence. I really wondered cos come on it’s been two years since we filled it out and he has moved to somewhere else. He had also left the company he initially was working at that time and his email had changed too…..


Well I made up my mind even before going there to never be bothered by anything. Even Paulinus tantrums and all. It was a bit heart breaking to see what one has To go through just to leave this country , but on a final note the goal is to get the visa. She calmed down towards the end of the interview when she saw all that was not working.

We are waiting for the embassy to contact my spouse soon so we know what next to do
