That's what I was actually thinking about. Writing them and using DHL to send the letter along with my documents again.

Do u av a mail correspondence from them asking you to submit your new admission document?

No I don't. They've been silent ever since

AgentONE:
What was the last mail they sent you?
When you tell me that, then i'll see if it's possible for you to take that to the consulate and submit the new admission by hand.

Hope you wrote a mail quoting your Visa applicant number and also explain what the new admission letter is for?

The last contact I had with the embassy was a week to resumption when they told me over the phone that they are still working on my application.

This is the email I sent after defering my admission
Dear Sir/ Madam,

Good day,


Owing to the delay in my student visa application, I am unable to resume my classes that commenced yesterday 15th April 2019. Hence, I have deferred my admission at the university, because I cannot join the classes at a later date.


However, I have been granted a new date of resumption by the university which is the 21st August 2019, that should give adequate time for the completion of my visa application process. My interview date was on the 6th of December 2018; Passport no. A0******, Visa Application no. #2****.


I have attached a copy of my new admission letter in this email. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you.

That's just gross act of negligence from the consulate, same thing happened to my friend last year who was going to Cottbus.
He funded before interview and performed very well at the interview, his VO was highly impressed but she told my guy,"Your application wont be processed yet as your enrollment deadline is still very much far and that since there's no urgent reason for him to travel anytime soon, that his doc will not be attended to immediately"

My dear, like play like play...a month or so to his deadline NO AM yet, baba had to write the consulate like, how far una na, when am i to receive an update from you, i have fulfilled all requirement it's almost close to my enrollment deadline.
It was in that month that they forwarded his doc to Germany for processing.

All i'm saying is that, just exercise patience as it will all finally work out for your good. Thank God that you've been able to defer to winter.
No need to withdraw your application, just send a mail with your new admission requesting for them to continue with your visa processing this winter. This will fly as it's still the same school that you're yet applying to.
Thank you AgentONE.
I've already sent an email with the new admission letter for winter semester and there was no response frim them confirming receipt of email.

I presume you funded before your interview, right?
Yes I funded before interview but sent confirmation via email the next day after my interview and I received a confirmation email from the consulate

What u would have done was to withdraw your application.. Then apply again. 5 months is too much na. And the worst of it, is them not communicating back. This is enough to give one HBP. I'm so sorry about this. Just keep prayer, that's all you need now. All d best
Thank you for your response.

I hope you get good news soon, I can imagine how hard this is for you, did you use SL or BA, but either of the two I think they should have responded by now.
I don’t envy you at all
Thank you for your response.
Could you please shed more light on SL and BA as I'm not familiar with that acronym.

Hello guys,

I need your candid advise on the next action to take concerning the scenario I'm about to narrate, I know it's a long read but I'll really appreciate your contributions. I'll try to keep it concise as much as possible.

I attended my student visa interview on the 6th of Dec. 2018 when my school was to resume in April 2019. The visa process normally takes 4-6 weeks as shown on the German website. On the 5th week after my interview I sent an email to inquire about the visa status and I got this response "Dear Sir, as your studies start in April, your visa could not yet be processed. You were an early bird considering your application. So we will process the application accordingly so that you can start your studies".

I waited till March before sending another inquiry email and there was no response from the embassy. I sent several emails afterwards and no reply, I called and I was told to send an email as no visa status information could be provided over the phone.

Mid-March I then called the Foreigner's office in the city of Kaiserslautern as my school is in Kaiserslautern and I was told that my documents have been processed and returned to my home country.

March ending I visited the consulate in person to inquire at the reception the cause of the delay but I was told to go and send an email, I explained everything to them and they said I should go and explain in the email, I told them I already did that and all they said was "be patient".

Last day of enrollment was March 31st (extended till April 10) beginning of classes was on 15th of April. I called the school to update them of the situation and help me contact the consulate but they said they don't have any influence with visa issues in Nigeria and what they can do is to defer my admission if I'm unable to meet with the deadline.

2weeks to beginning of studies i called the embassy again and explained the situation. I was told to hold for some minutes and when the person got back she told me "they said they are still working on it!"

3 days to beginning of studies, I defered my admission and got a new admission letter for winter semester in August.

April 16th I sent this email to the consulate "

Dear Sir/ Madam,
Good day,
Owing to the delay in my student visa application, I am unable to resume my classes that commenced yesterday 15th April 2019. Hence, I have deferred my admission at the university, because I cannot join the classes at a later date.

I have attached a copy of my new admission letter in this email. I look forward to hearing from you soon. Thank you."

That was my last contact with the embassy, they never acknowledged receipt of the email or the new admission letter.

Now what do I do as I am confused "note they have all my original certificates with them at the embassy" and it's been over 5 months.
