I just got admitted to BU Weimar, please I need information about the town, the environment, job opportunities and Co. Someone with info please, thanks.

truthsayer009:


The problem with these stories is, you never see someone online saying "I was working 20 hours per week & making X amount". What you hear is , a friend of mine bla bla bla. This isn't the first time people are coming up with stories please.

dobeespen:


Uncle what are you saying? Did you read what I wrote at all? I said he earns €16/hr, and so even if he works 20 hrs/week he can save up to 1k depending on what his expenses look like.

Also, KVR won't come knocking on your door if you earn more than 9k so calm down abeg. What may happen is that you may be asked to pay back the extra money the next year by the Finanzamt and NOT the KVR.

And I've even heard that this can be defended if you can prove that you were in a werkstudent position and not doing menial jobs. So calm down with the "he must be collecting the money by hand" story.

Gurus pls help me make a decision. Am choosing a city based on job opportunities. I have to choose between koethen( HS anhalt), Bayreuth (uni Bayreuth), pfarrkirchen (DIT)

odimbannamdi:


Bro, do u mind shedding a little light on the emboldened?

What are KVR and Finanzamt?
Why did you use 9k as a benchmark
Why would one be asked to pay back the extra money if s/he earns more than 9k?

dobeespen:


Lol. Na you know. I don't owe you diddly squat so at the end of the day, take it or leave it. Just stop the fear mongering biko.

truthsayer009:


It's not fear mongering, I don't people spreading fake news/fake hopes. On this same thread, people claiming they can save 10k Euros per year which is very Impossible. Too many fake facts spreading. After semesters people have the time to work as long as they want, I know about that & 16Euros per hour is high & probably on a very high skilled work.

You can also be earning money via your Dorm account & the government cannot know about it as long as the organization agrees to transfer to it, I'm asking because people do things secretly without saying the true picture.

dobeespen:


That's why I said it's UNCOMMON but not IMPOSSIBLE.
So it's exception but not the rule and I know I stressed that out many many times.

Yes, it's a highly skilled Werkstudent position at Panasonic, but then again his knowledge of German is at the B1/B2 level.

Thanks a lot Hadampson
They say a good man learns from his mistakes but a wise man learns from the mistakes of others. I wanted to apply for winter 2019 but after reading this thread and the student visa thread thoroughly I understood that if you want to succeed in DE, you have to plan thoroughly. So now I've pushed back my application to summer 2020 so I can write at least A2 here in Naija. It seems so far away but I know it'll surely be worth it.
My advice to my fellow aspirants: Patience is a virtue and knowledge is power.



Pls where and how can we write this exams from Nigeria A1 or A2

RealPower77:
Someone please

Building construction and architecture is a very lucrative specialty here, the only clause is that you take your german language serious if you want job offers to be chasing you.

All my guys in this field are working now though their german language isn't that great but at least they can communicate (B1 level).

So pursue it!

Maybe Pfarrkirchen cause of its close proximity to Munich, where the possibility of finding jobs is way higher than in other smaller cities.

When I worked at Primark, a lot of the students there came from Pfarrkichen.
