I don't think it matters that much. I also have a German passport and work as a SW engineer for an automotive OEM, but yet the embassy are not making the process for my wife any faster due to that regard. The earlier you apply for the appointment date, the earlier you receive an appointment which for now is 1 year waiting time. The best you could do for yourself is go through the checklist and compile all the required documents before hand.

You most likely would have it a lot faster if your spouse had a blue card (is a special residence title for foreign academics who wish to take up qualified employment in Germany) as this would have the embassy skip the document verification process.

Thank you for your response.
I might need to try other route of getting to Germany.

OK ma, thanks dear

FrauPosh:


I hope you understood dear? I edited my message. The contact number you requested is always bundesland specific. The number I provided is for NordRhine Westfalen.

My wife and baby finally got family reunion appointment today for 20th of september. we booked 28th of june 2022.

Do I have to inform my company I am bringing my family? Do I need a document or letter from them? If yes, do they have to state the name of my wife and kids?

.

Please, is it possible to postpone interview after a date has been given?

If yes, please, how?

And for how long can it be postponed?

Thanks in advance for your response

Please how long does it take to get an appointment for family reunion .how long can the whole process last.

Babbbbbbbbby:
hmmm my dear not to give you wrong info but in my dictionary this German embassy do not understand fast,so I really can't say.

thanks they have given us appointment date but they did not state anything like health insurance or letter of employment as I read on the internet.
They just asked for passport and application form and the appointment fee
Please the appointment date is just next week here.
Are these the only thing we are supposed to submit?

To get appointment is between 14 or 15 months.

As for how long the entire process takes; it depends on several factors like the type of residence your spouse and let’s say God factor.

However, anything after going for interview is peculiar to each person and application.

Yes, it is possible. However, you must present a strong case why they should and back it up with evidence (documents). Please, your reason must be water tight and the evidence.

You, can then write them via email.

Hi all,
Please, the embassy acknowledged the receipt of our remonstration letter since the 15th of May but till now, we have not gotten any feedback from them on the status of this appeal. Although they instructed us not to contact them, three months is already too long a wait therefore I plan to contact them immediately . Please what is the best way to go about this?

N.B: the visa was denied on the grounds that the marriage happened after the issuance of student residence permit to the applicant's spouse

Babbbbbbbbby:
Thanks everyone for your concerns,we are all in this together. I see us as a small family. At exactly 7months after my visa interview, the lawyer called,Since I am in a different city from my parents and where all my school and other documents were to be verified,he saw me first as he also needed to verify with my employer before proceeding to see my parent and also to verify my documents which are in the same state as my parents. I am so happy, atleast one step forward. Now it's to wait for verification complete email then send your passport and travel date email,I can't wait.

Please what questions were your family and friends asked during the verification process? Were they also asked about your past trips outside the country
