Marriage verification time- spouse visa
Respuesta
4/11/14 15:57
Hi all,

I applied for German spouse visa on 5-Aug-2014 in Bangalore. After 25 days I got a call from Bangalore embassy asking me to pay Rs2000 for marriage certificate investigation. I paid the fees on 5-Sep-2014. After a month i followed up with the embassy but the answer i got from them was " Visa is still under process". I am calling them every week but I'm getting to hear the same response everytime. It's been 3 months since I've applied for spouse visa. My husband tried calling the embassy in Germany but they are waiting to hear from Indian embassy. But till date no lawyer has come to visit me. This is really bothering me cos lawyer has visited almost all the applicants within 3-4 weeks since the time they have paid the fees for marriage investigation but in my case even after 12 weeks i don't see any lawyer visiting me nor I don't see any progress from Bangalore embassy. 
So I want to know:
1) Will the lawyer visit in South India?
2) It's been 3 months since I've applied for my visa. So can anyone tell me as to roughly how long it might take for me to get my visa.
 Awaiting quick response pls

Thank you

Hi,

Can I know the proceeder to correct the mistake done in the application form? cos when my husband spoke to the embassy person in Gemany they have asked to get intouch with the Indian Embassy to correct the mistake, but I've not got any communication from Indian Embassy for the same. I even tried calling the embassy here and tried explaning the situation but they said that they would get back to me in case they require any rectification. 
So if someone is aware of the proceeder to get it right, pls share it.

Hello,

It is probable that the Lawyer has already got the investigation done and submitted his report.

But, it is really perplexing to note that, You have commited a mistake in the application form and want to correct. Could You please provide more information as to what has happened with with the application, and How You came to know about the mistake?

This will help us better answer Your queries.

In addition, as CEBIT informed, writing a cover letter to ABH to claim that it was a bonafide mistake will help. Please send a copy of that Letter to the Consulate also, where Your application is being processed.

Let us know your status, so that we can help out.

BR,

Hi,
According to German embassy it's a mistake. I really don't understand why they consider it as a mistake.

While submitting my application form, the lady who took my interview asked me that how long I would want to stay in Germany. I answered her saying more than three years. And she filled the same in column in the application form which had asked to specify no of years of stay ( I had left that column blank ). This was filled without informing me. My husband is a permanent resident. When my husband spoke to the German embassy they questioned him saying "why your wife has mentioned that she would stay for three years when you are a permanent resident here? " n they have considered this as a mistake and they have asked me correct it.Since they have considered this as a mistake, German embassy has sent mail to Indian embassy on 26th Aug asking to verify my marriage certificate. But till now they have not received any update from Indian embassy so it's clear that marriage certificate investigation is not complete yet. I'm really worried cos when I explained this to Indian embassy they say we wouldn't have accepted your form if there was a mistake and they say that we will get in touch with you in case we need any clarification.I really don't know what to do cos embassy here is not communicating anything but German embassy is asking me to correct the form. So pls help me on this

Thanks for the clarification:

It is a very generic answer (harmless answer) for You, but from the VIew of the processing officer, it is a mistake. Just imagine that, somebody is a Permanent Resident (Meaning, who can reside in the country permanently) and His spouse wants a visa only for 3 Years. Doesn't this arise any suspicion? 

The situtation as I understand is: The ball is in the Bangalore Consulate's court. It is the Consulate's reply, which is sought by the Auslaenderbehorde in Germany.

So, get in touch with them (Bangalore Consulate) and ask for the status update, as it has been more than 2 months after the Marriage Verification has been started. Visit in person and ask for the status update or any need for clarification.

BR,

@swati

having stated 3 years is NOT at all a problem, even though your intentions to stay is permanent. After all you have only requested and it is upto the ABH to grant it. You dont have to worry about it all. As long as your fill any thing more than 1 year it is not a problem.

Hi,

Thank you all for your response.

I hope it's not a problem but German embassy have communicated this to my husband clearly stating that it's a mistake. I call Indian embassy everyweek and explain this but they say that there is absolutely no mistake in the application form. So I'm completely blank as to what is happening. In case German embassy rejects my visa on this ground, how soon can I apply again?

Hi Swathi,
 
I applied for family reunion visa at Chennai embassy and i did the same. I asked the embassy staff when I submitted the application how much time I can fill they said it does not matter cause u get visa for 3 months and the office in Germany will issue the long term residency permit. In fact I filled 3 years like you. I paid for marriage verification on October 11 and still no one visited me for verification.

Hallo Swathi,

you don't need to worry much about. The date/month/year is tentative (consider application form). That was not a big issue. But what i am suggesting you is that, write an email to the banglore consulate about your findings and the informations that you got from your husband & alien office side. 

FYI: Do not compare your visa case with another. Every case is different. Depends on the individual it may change.

Your next step would be: Write an email to the consulate to ask about visa processing. If they dont reply you on time, which means it is all under process ( no problem). But as your thought, if they found anything unusual in the application form, they will write you immideatly with proper alternatives or you might get rejection letter too. So do not get harm down.


Note for you: Please choose the medium as email instead of calling. They won't respond properly in calls. And be in touch with banglore consulate not in Alien Authority (local alien office/ABH) in Germany.

Thanks

Hallo Ali,

in your case: Once ABH got your marriage verification report from the consulate (where you applied), They need probably 9-12 days of maximum for to make decision/opinion (approval or rejection). You can expect middle of december.

Hallo Swathi,

i agreed with what cebit has said. You don't need to worry so much about the date/month/year was marked in your application. If suppose, your visa is to be rejected-you can remonstrate/appeal against the visa decision (which usually called as Remonstration letter to the consulate- you ought to lodge the appeal within in a month of time, starting from the date of rejection letter received) or with the rejection letter you can lodge a new application. But again you have to move through the same period of time (so called processing time around 3 months)

Note: Keep on write them. They will surely revert you back.

Hey menoncruz.

My case is also pretty close to Ali's
I submitted my case on the 8th september and three weeks later the alien office in hamburg sent a letter yo my husband asking him to submit his documents so to speed up the process. The lawyer visited me on the 24th of October and two weeks later I submitted my german result because I took the exam in November.
Now I have no idea where my case stands and my husband refuses to follow up in hamburg since he doesn't want to annoy them.

Some light and positive feed back would be appreciated emoticon

Hallo Syed,

keep cool and be relaxemoticon. Based on the given details (from you), I am telling, that you were entered in final round emoticon. Once ABH/foreign office receive marriage verification report and language certificate from consulate (where you applied), they will check the documents from your husband and forward their opinion/approval to consulate (where you applied). Hardly, ABH need 9-12 days for their processing (once everything is ready)emoticon

You can ontact your consulate through email as medium to check your status of application/what is happening (Keep in mind: Do not simply ask the status of your appln)
