@Cindino20 i agree with your view but will like to point out some things;

Most times public insurance does not cover everything too. A friend using T.K (public) also visited an Hospital just two days ago because of catarrh, his bills was 47euros and to his surprise he was asked to pay 7euros because he was given a 7euros drug that the insurance does not cover.

Another thing is private don't refund partly, they refund fully up to a certain threshold (will confirm the threshold), a friend using Mawista (private) doctor/hospital bill has never passed 200euros and he gets full refund at the end of the month and also there is no stress in emailing your bills to the insurance, you just mail and they refund automatically at the end of the month (atleast for Mawista).

Public or Private, it depends on how you experience it and the choice is yours to make people

With Govt insurance u normall contribute btwn 5 to 10 euros for drugs and sometimes u dont contribute..I think u contribute for antibotics

Your last line sums my point and I only gave the ups and downs of both choice.

I do not see this as a problem
1stly, you need 8k for yourself and 4k for your spouse (another 4k for a child.... if you have one)

2ndly, you can do a court marriage now, collect the certificate and pictures or pictures from your introduction (if you have done one). You can also collect your call log from your network provider, different pictures you guys have snapped together (birthday pics, occassions you attended together) depending on how long you guys have been together (the longer the better)

Lastly, If you have the money (12k) and the proof, its better you process the two together because if you process yours 1st, Family Reunion Visa takes up to 9months sometimes.


hmm.. Nice info. Great one indeed. please keep it up guys. You are keeping many souls on the right path!

bros, no wash me jarre! you know say na from where I stop na you start wink.. Only u na bad guyz!!!


bros abeg help me confirm...if person choose the private, na all the money wey the person spend for hospital the insurance company go pay back? and if no be all, what percentage?
secondly, can someone choose private this month and public the next month? or once you choose one, you must stick to it?
thirdly, and lastly, lets say person wey use private come sick and needs to perform an operation (God Forbid oh), I trust the person would be able to withdraw more money than need be (i.e above 670 EUR) from his blocked account in that month by applying to the ....(dunno, maybe alien office, i think)??

Well as for me sha, I go carry my specially prepared Anointing Oil follow body grin(The Devil is a LIAR cheesy grin), but still I intend to fully utilize the excellent health care facilities available in Germany (afterall I pay for it right?) hence all these my plenty questions. wink

bros no fear, God wey don start am go finish am for you. Thanks for your swift responses.

you are welcome bro. Man no dey shake. As e dey so, God don perfect everything already. I dey gbadun all of una for hear. you all are lovely companions. Keep it rolling people..... Cheers.

My advise to everyone includin Takeastep...quitely go for public Insurance baba...if u re under 30 u will contribute abt 81.50euros a mth...the advantages re far more than private insurance...

Disadvantages of Private Insurance...

1.if you visit the hospital..u get to pay ur bill fitst and then get partial refund from ur insurance coy...very tricky and the health care cost is high..a friend of mine once vsiited a Dr. And complained of abdominal pains only for the doc to just examine him, gave him pain relievers and then referred him to the general hospital again nothin was diagnosed and he was asked to take same drugs he received from the former doc....and my friend recieved abt 120euros for the first doc( Dr.Pain .....) and abt 140 for the second one...He had to pay and then file a claim with his insurance company..save urself this headache...yes pple will argue that Nigerians don't fall ill yes I agree I barely visit the clinic ( except when I ve "wicklo" caused by bittin my nails out of boredom or being tensed..u wont believe..I had to do an Xray and a minor sugery for that , If I was usin a private Insurance coy I would ve been done with financially cos I did same minor surgery twice within 6mths.. ) ....to be on the safer side just go with the govt insurance .

2. Some employers will not employ u with private insurance ( e.g Amazon)..they will ask u to get a new insurance contract before u get the job and they will pay for it...

3.In some uni...e.g Bochum and Bonn Rhein seig or so ...they prefer and encourage student to use govt insurance ...Aok..Tk..etc.

4.Dependin on ur job contract..at times u can file for payment of sick leave from Ur Krankenkasse (health Insurance coy) ..well I really dont know hw this works and if its applicable to students...I guess it will be after 6weeks of sick leave the krankenkasse will step in and pay for sick leave..( Prolong illness)..well I dont wish this for anyone..but again we live in a world when nothing is certain.

Disadvantage of Govt Insurance....

Cost...the difference is abt 40 euros a mth....

Think and choose wisely

All the best pple.

Modified...Emirates airline use to ve cheap flights then...U can also check Airmaroc or use opodo.com to check for cheap flights......

Fantastic piece. I think i now get the gist better now. Meanwhile, i suppose its ok for me to go with Mawista for my first three months here. then i can switch to the public insurance after then for my Phd programme. Is that fine?

********'I intend to stay no longer than twelve months in the federal territory and apply for a visa that covers the whole duration of my stay '*******


[s] THE EMBASSY WILL GIVE 3 MONTHS VISA TO ENTER GERMANY . WHEN NOW IN GERMANY,THEY WILL GIVE YOU ONE OR TWO YEARS RESIDENCE PERMIT WHEN ONE APPLIES AT THE LOCAL AUTHORITY.

THE STATEMENT SIMPLY MEANS.. DO YOU WANT TO STAY IN GERMANY WITHIN 12 MONTHS DURING WHICH YOU APPLY FOR A RESIDENCE PERMIT FOR YOUR STUDY. THE ANSWER IS YES.

BECAUSE WITHIN 3 MONTHS YOU SHOULD HAVE APPLIED. SO IT SHOULD BE TICKED.

MY OWN OPINION. [/s] MY OPINION IS NOT CORRECT. I'M NOT VERY CERTAIN SO I CANCELLED IT. TILL THE LIGHT ON THIS IS FULLY SHONE.

New light.. I read an opinion in a forum that it's intended for study or stay less than a year. So it should not be ticked.

yea, it was a PDF file, congrats on ur offer. I was talking about the German post office strike which has been resolved now...Once you have corrected the address they will send you a scanned copy of the admission letter and post to your address as well. contact your dept as well not the master@unibremen, my offer letter was sent to me by the course coordinator (PDF) and he explained the cause of the delay. You can as well call them through phone, they will surely attend to you. hope this helps.


I have contacted them but yet to receive a response of getting the PDF format but probably on Monday. Thanks

@futurewiser, as far as i know, it covers most drug with Dr. prescription. You are on your own with any drug you buy without prescription (there is limit to drugs sold without prescription anyway)

Hello, i'm new to this forum and i've read some past pages. I'm planning on applying for masters against next year winter. Finished service in June 2014.

My major concern is how to go with a spouse and the amount needed in the blocked account. Also, is it advisable to apply for both of us by march when the admission would come out or I should apply for myself alone? This is because my wedding would be coming up by August 2016 and there's no tie to prove the relationship till then. Or should I go ahead with my own application and process for my spouse after the wedding. I will appreciate your responses. Thanks

FOR the person asking how much for a child, this is my cousin communication with the Embassy. This will help many people

Dear Madam,

thank you for your inquiry.

The lump rate for a child of the age of under 6 years is 235 EUR per month, so for the first year of your stay this would make 2820 EUR. However, please note that the Consulate does not make the final decision on the funding of the stay but this decision is usually made by the Aliens Authority (Ausländerbehörde) of the city where you intend to live. Therefore, I would highly recommend you to get in touch with the Aliens Authority in order to double-check.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely yours,

Visa Section (Wo)
