thank you
sinu

Hi,
It should be possible to apply provided you show them 3 months of salary certificate and a decent accomodation and a letter from your company stating you work for them/job contract.

It is then a lottery as to how early a Visa could be issued(factor 2 months if everything goes according to plans and factor 2-6 months if they decide to harass you with marriage verification etc).

Make sure your wedding certificates are translated in German by Indo-German chamber and that your spouse has a Goethe A1 german certificate.

Good luck.
Cheers

Hi Khopdee,

howmany days does it take to translate into german. Is there any center in bangalore for indogerman chamber. Should i take any appointment. Any link or contact no?

Thanks for your help.

spouse visa are issued even before the probabtionary period has even started.

This happens when applicant and the spouse apply for the visa from India before coming to Germany.

So this should not be a issue.

Good luck with your visa

Hi Peek,
It should take a day or max 2.
There is a Indo-German chamber in Bangalore, just google indo-German comemrce chamber, Bangalore and you will find the address with the contact details.

Wish you good.
Cheers

Thanks Khopde. Meanwhile, i calld bangalore office.

It costs per word 3 rs and 200 rs for certification and it is possible to get within 1 day if we go early.

Moreover, translation can be done in all the respective cities as u see in the website.

Hi Sinu,

I am in a similar situation as yours and would be applying for my wife's dependent visa in probezeit. I have been working in Germany since the last 3 years.

Did you get any feedback from the Ausländerbehörde ? My AusBeh.. asked me to get a "Arbeits und Verdeints Beschinigung " (where the company says that he has a work contract and has a net salary of xyz).

mstuttgart.

My wife's visa was approved during my probezeit recently.

do u live in Stuttgart?

good luck

thank you

Yes I live in Stuttgart area.

Hi,

I have also applied for my wife and my son visa from Mumbai in December 2008. However, when I approached Ausländerbehörde in Hannover, they informed me that during the probation, family visas can't be issued. (Although, I have decent salary and accomodation!)
Now I am talking to my employer to issue a letter which states that my probation has been ended. (currently it is about 4.5 months).

Has any one gone through similar conditions?? Inputs will be appreciated..thanks

Write a letter to the ABH stating that your probezeit period is over and attach a letter from your employer and last 3 salary slips..that should work
