FrauPosh:
My lawyer just called me two hours ago, that he will be coming tomorrow. It has been a long wait. I'm so exhausted but I am thankful to God.
This is coming at exactly 8 months and two weeks because although I had my interview in January 2023, the verification process began in February. So I was told by the embassy.
Finally!! I thank everyone in this group for giving me the strength to go on with their kind words of encouragement. We will all smile at the end.

Hi everyone it’s been 5 weeks since I went for my AD, so last week I emailed this address zzVISABVA@bva.bund.de and got this reply
“Dear Madam, dear Sir,

at immigration office (Ausländerbehörde) the processing of your visa-application is completed.

The Embassy/Consulate has to make the final decision.

For further information please contact the Embassy/Consulate.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Yours sincerely”
Please has anyone one received this reply before or does anyone know if it means the visa processing is done?

3rd attempt at IELTS -

L - 8.5
R - 9.0
W - 7.5
S - 8.5

I’ve always had no issues with L&R, but you see R&W, I wasn’t getting the score I desired in them.

In the past, I always stuck to the word limit when writing and I think that worked against me. After going through the practice platform for IELTS British Council, and I saw that band 9 essays were way more than the word limit, I decided to try that out and I believe that helped me.

For Speaking, I was lucky that I had an idea about all I was asked. Also it was a white person that interviewed me this time (not sure if that was an edge for me).

Materials - IELTS Liz, IELTS E2 YouTube, IELTS BC official practice platform, and a Makkar doc too.

Hello,

Please, does the embassy still accept AXA Mansard travel insurance for family reunion…?

Thanks

Festaco:
I don't quite agree with the marriage requirement stated in this post.....I stand to be corrected. No one has the right to tell you....

My advice would be, do everything within your reach to prove to them that you deserve to live together with your spouse and not separated from him/her. You may be lucky, its just a trial and luck stuff. If you have money, the best appraoch is to involve an immigration lawyer.

All the best

Gracias112:
Am sorry About that dear but in my own understanding does your spouse has an Eu Blue card already and does he has a good paying job, if no I don’t think family reunification is possible

VERASONDUBABE:
Nothing dear, my husband has written the ABH last month, they said that they are waiting for authorisation. Is very unfair the way they are treating us but is well.

Ewatominiyi:

Nnennaaaaaaaaaa:
Thank you 🙂

No the lawyer didn’t, verification mail was from the March visit. You know verification is done once so they literally verified my son through me, na for my matter most of the documents to be verified dey lol

Nnennaaaaaaaaaa:
Hi dear, good morning

Here’s my timeline;

Booked appointment for my son & I in July 2021

Got appointment for him (passport) Feb 2022 so the verification for both of us started then

Lawyer visited in March same year

Then I got appointment for myself in September to come submitted my documents as mine & my sons’ couldn’t be merged cause our applications were different

Verification complete mail 27th January

Was asked to Submitted my passport in April 2023 which I did about a week after (May)

Passport was delivered with visa in May as well.

Luckily for me my husband wasn’t asked to submit any document at his foreign office so there wasn’t any unnecessary delay again.

UCEKE:
Unfortunately, you have not sent us the complete documents. Please pick this up:

The legalisation of your marriage certificate (unfortunately, you only sent us the marriage certificate again, but we need the legalisation of it)

Proof of income March to May 2023

Rent June 2023

Lease agreement which is still valid for at least 12 months

We received the above request from the foreign office in Germany. Please who else have received such request and didn’t the request for legalization from you or it is a new requirement?

Babbbbbbbbby:
As long as the person isn't your spouse, then it's tourist visa.

ambassadorsam:
Pls check you DM @Zluky

FrauPosh:
I did my interview in January 2023. I paid the verification fee of 150k. This month of May is almost ending I still haven't heard from my lawyer.
Did your friend's wife insist on paying and it was rejected? There are some people that were called back later to pay the fee. Most times the interview officer tells you the reason why a fee is waived.For example the visa officer that interviewed me told me why I shouldn't pay the visa fee. If they want to change the process please let them change it. Haba! The stress is too much. They can verify documents but let them scrap out this lawyer visit of a thing chai. That's the one that is paining me o.

jbonito:
FRV update…

Application: July 2021
Interview: September 2022
Lawyer called and visited: February 2023
Request for document from ABH: March 2023
Visa approved by ABH and Embassy: April 2023
Visa delivered: May 2023

Most of the tiny details are similar to most experiences and timeline just a bit stretched while waiting for lawyer’s visit.

Wishing everyone waiting for news all the best!

Babbbbbbbbby:
Good morning everyone, please does anyone know how I can locate my lawyer? Its been 7months since interview and still no lawyer. My husband called one of those imigration office in Germany and he was told that there has been no update from the lawyer. That the system just shows that the verification has be initiated but it hasn't been completed making me come to the conclusion that the lawyer is the one delaying my process. I have sent emails to the embassy and no response,I feel crippled and I don't know what to do 🥺🥺🥺

dipotol:
How can someone know if application has left Lagos please? To know if they have sent it to foreign office?

Vee4:
Your spouse over tbere will call Ausländerbehörde to find out.

Ahmed4002:
Got a verification mail complete a week ago.


So am just waiting for the final approval.

The waiting and suspense is too much
