Hello All,

I am applying for Germany Employment Visa (Work Permit) from India and have to fill in the VIDEX online visa application form.
I have earlier worked in Germany and was issued a EU Blue Card
I have some queries about some the information being asked and request your help with the same.

1. Have your fingerprints been collected previously for the purpose of applying for a Schengen visa?
Would this also be Yes for a work visa? I succesfully got a visa in 2017 and remember giving fingerprints but I am not sure I can fully trust my memory.

2. Have you been issued with a Schengen visa within the last three years?
I have put in the dates of my last work visa, which started with National D-Visum to the expiry of my residence permit.

3. Residence Permit issued by?
Is this one titled Bezirksamt on my Blue Card?

4. Regarding the Means of Support, there is an option called "Assumption of all expenses during the stay"
What does this refer to?

Thank you in advance for your help!
