TemitopeWalker: Getting job is a good path to that destination, but it is not automatic. There are other things involved including number of years spent in Germany. Moreover , the job must directly related to your program. Shalom 4 Likes |

connweke: That is the same question I just asked and have been answered by Honourableseyi, Ayomeah and Trojrobert. You can read back a little. Please proceed to book your appointment with the admission letter you have now , prepare for your interview with this school as if this is the real school you will attend. You can get your visa with school A and resume to school B ,but you need the right way to get it done. 2 Likes |

[quote author=connweke post=62971362]Can i book my appointment in Abuja?[/quo Student visa can only be booked in Lagos.

honourableseyi: the job does not need to be directly involved with your study one thing people don't know about Germany is that they don't have a structured law and regulations. so it always depends on the person taking your file and again it depends on the city. like berlin for example dont stress students on visa and resident permit like fund requirement for extension goes as low as 600-1500 in your bank account but some cities will tell you to block 8k euro again... 4 Likes |

Lalaski001: Please Can someone who has gone through this process before or someone who has information on this kindly respond to this. Our Ogas and Madams should please explain. Thanks. |
Re: General German Student Visa Enquiries Part 4 by BabaEuro: 4:08pm On Dec 04, 2017 |
Lalaski001: Fintiba is more easier, cheaper and straightforward. Reason being that you can do it online at the comfort of your house and it takes just 48hours to get your bank account opened. Just go to the site to start the process : https://www.fintiba.com/,upload a copy of your passport , your selfie,your admission letter and some few other things.. But for Deutsche bank ,you have to book appointment with Lagos embassy with a copy of your admission letter and the form must be properly filled and signed in the presence of consulate or so, it takes between 2-4 weeks to get your account opened.Any slight error can also cause further delay. This era of visa being booked out,I will advise you to go with Fintiba. The only advantage I see with Deutsche relative to Fintiba is it is more popular and found everywhere in Germany than Fintiba. 3 Likes |

TemitopeWalker: Make sure you confirm a critical issue like this very well so as not to give people unnecessary hope. The general law is, your course must directly be related to the job and earning a certain amount of money per month (The figure can actually depend on who is implementing it and also your course). I have seen many cases which I couldn't be saying here. There is an article and section that takes care of this under German law. We have people that completed Msc and still go for another Msc just to maintain status. Even if it is going to happen, it will be in few and special cases and not the norm like renewing residence permit for studies. If you really think you can get permanent resident from any work that is not related to your course of studies after 18months post studies visa or it is the general norm in Germany , then good luck. Shalom Graduates’ right to remain "After successful completion of the studies at a German higher education institution, all foreign students are permitted to remain in the Federal territory for up to 18 months as a matter of principle. The application for extended residence after completion of studies at a higher education institution must be filed immediately after the completion of the studies. This extension of the residence permit, which is regulated in section 16 subs. 4 of the Residence Act, is to encourage foreign students to seek a job commensurate with the qualification which they gained at the German higher education institution after graduation. In accordance with the provisions contained in sections 18, 19, 19a, 20 and 21 of the Residence Act, the graduate changes from graduate status in accordance with section 16 subs. 4 of the Residence Act to the respective permit. A direct change from student status (section 16 subs. 1 of the Residence Act) to another permit is also possible if self-employment or an employment contract exists already at the time of graduation. A direct transition to an unrestricted residence permit in the shape of a 16 The purpose of the residence is decisive, i.e. whether focussing mainly on studies or mainly on work. 26 International students in the German education system settlement permit in accordance with section 9 of the Residence Act is not possible; however, with the legal amendment of the Residence Act as per 1 August 2012, a possibility has been created in accordance with section 18b of the Residence Act for graduates of German higher education institutions to obtain a settlement permit under certain conditions after working for two years (see section 2.2.2). With the amendment to the Employment Ordinance from 1 January 2009 (Federal Law Gazette (Bundesgesetzblatt) Part I No. 64, p. 2972), no priority examination is conducted as a rule when appointing foreign graduates if the job that has been found is commensurate with the qualification obtained at the German higher education institution (see section 27 sentence 1 No. 3 and sentence 2 of the Employment Ordinance). Since 1 August 2012 on the requirement to obtain the approval of the Federal Employment Agency has been waived. Job-seeking residence cannot be extended as a matter of principle. If the university graduate does not look for a job, or if they do not manage to find one, they must leave the country. Further residence is possible, either through transition to a residence permit that is tied to gainful employment in accordance with sections 18, 19, 19a, 20 or 21 of the Residence Act, or in the case of spousal reunification in accordance with section 28 subs. 1 of the Residence Act (spouse of a German) or section 30 of the Residence Act (spouse of a foreigner) or in accordance with section 28 subs. 1 sentence 1 No. 3 of the Residence Act (reunification as a parent to a German child) (see section 2.2.6)" 6 Likes |

dailydolar: He cant. He has to present the application form of the school he's sending it to, which will be stapled along his other doc photocopies. Also, the certification is dont in such a way that the name of the school you're sending it to is written by the certification officer and stamped. You cant manipulate it. Any manipulation will lead to it being rejected by your prospective school. And he can go back to certify the remaining two when the need arises. It will still be done free of charge 1 Like |

dailydolar: Permanent residence will come before German passport. Getting German passport is another journey on its own if you are not going in the way of marrying a German. The below post might help. NOTE: After the 18months, some cities will give like 2 or 3 extra months for some time if you can not secure the required job before the final decision. Shalom "Residence permit for taking up employment: As soon as you have a job offer which corresponds to your qualifications, you can choose whether you want to apply for a German Residence permit or an EU Blue Card for the next part of your stay. Various conditions are attached to both these residence permits. Depending on what you are planning to do in the future, either the German Residence permit or the EU Blue Card can be advantageous for you. If you intend subsequently to live and work in another EU state, the EU Blue Card may be more advantageous for you than the German Residence permit. As the choice of Residence permit largely depends on your personal situation, get the advice of your local foreign nationals' registration office when you apply. Even if you just get a job offer for a part-time employment , a Residence permit can be granted to you. It is important that the expected salary secures all means of subsistence. The decision depends entirely on the local immigration authority. We recommend that you ask the foreign residents’ registration office which documents you need to bring with you before submitting your application. Some local offices provide information about this on the Internet too. The German Residence permit or EU Blue Card allowing you to take up employment is issued for a limited period first of all. If you continue to be employed and wish to have your permit extended, you will be able to do this without any problem. As early as two years after receiving your German or EU Blue Card Residence permit, you can apply for a permanent Residence permit – that is, a Residence permit without a time limit. Again, the condition is that you still have employment in Germany. Are you planning to stay abroad for a lengthy period? If you have an EU Blue Card, you can usually stay abroad for up to twelve months without your Blue Card’s becoming invalid. If you have a German Residence permit, you can usually stay abroad for up to six months without your permit’s becoming invalid." 4 Likes 1 Share |
