You definitely can't back out of the interview because of the passport, so just go ahead and attend your interview. I believe passports are only renewed from 6 months to its expiry, which means you have not done much wrong to still have that passport at the moment. After your interview, the embassy will keep your passport for sure.

You will most likely have to get a fresh passport in Germany if all goes well ( hopefully it does ).

PS: I'm sure you will be wishing you had gotten a new passport before now, but don't dwell on it !! Just have a great interview and leave the rest to God!!

Thank you very much by God's grace i will be Germany this year.

hello
I want to apply for german student visa, and my wife wants to accompany me, when i open blocked account, is one account enough in finitiba? putting the amount multiply by two for two persons?

U need about an extra 5k but that will be or might limit ur chances. Cos she might be a strong reason why u must return.

I'd advise, cross and apply for family re-union.

Others can add.

better go and get a new passport before your interview date. You need a passport that has at least two yrs validity for a student visa

Not totally correct sire.

3- 6 months validity is required. but better u go with new one.

Yes. To be on a safer side.

Just go with the 2.......Make sure you sellotape the last page of the Old one and the First Page of the New One together so you wont misplace/loose it.

Good day house, I have gotten an admission for masters in University of Rostock Germany and also have been scheduled for an appointment next week at the German Embassy.

I just got my Deutche Bank account today, Glory be to God after 2 weeks, I was actually thinking the account wont be opened due to signature issues i faced at the embassy because the one on my passport is different, the very nice man at the embassy helped me out and he didnt even chase me. Now it is money and preparation for the interview na him remain.

Congrats

Your passport is already into the last 6 months, so you can get a new passport after your interview and send same for visa stamping. You may have to inform the Consulate though.
This was exactly what I did and there was no drama.

Good luck

Big thanks to everyone who replied my questions. I will sure inform the consulate but the other guy said they will collect and keep my passport after the interview and another guy said they won't keep my passport but will only request my passport for visa stamping after i succeed with my interview.


Please to those who got their Student visas, after the interview do the consulate keep your passport or they give it back to you? Please i need answers from people that have gotten their visas.

@Tinder.
No need to worry.
Usually they return it back to you after the interview. But there is nothing to worry about should they hold it back. My friend's was also held for

about 7 weeks last year. He was all worried about it too but he got it later.

Yes.
Because you didn't apply with the Old One & besides you have no travelling history on it. If you had said you booked with the new one

earlier, you would have gotten the same reply.
