Seeking help on VISA for me and my wife from India, Bangalore
Hi I needed some help in understanding what would be my options in securing my wife's and my VISA application so that we can get to Germany together.
I have an offer from Munich University of Applied Sciences for a Scientist/Research position with salary matching TL-V level-1. I also have work experience post my PhD, I hear the level can be increased.
I am trying to apply through the German embassy Consular Services Portal, but I am still to figure out how to get both my and my wife's submission to go through. Also it seems that the submissions through the German Embassy have wait times of 3 weeks and above for the Bluecard application. I find the family reunion route for my wife to also be tricky.
I would like it if someone can help me regarding the following matters:
- It seems they are not exactly accepting of my verification of employment letter given by my previous company. They are talking about some more formal employment relationship letter. If anyone knows more about it do let me know.
- Should I prefer VFS to German Embassy. I wish to get the VISA before I announce my exit to my current employer. So I would in principle like to able to get this done fast. I am awaiting certain documents from the University for the time being. But as soon as I get them what would be a better platform to send in my application.
- I am really confused regarding the spouse reunion route, is this where my wife needs to fill in her application to come along with me. In case anyone was ever in a similar situation and can help me with my situation I would be very grateful!
