Hi,
 I have applied for Family reunion spouse visa on Feb 8th, 2013. My interview is scheduled on March 5th at chennai.. I have a few questions..please help !

1. When will the visa verification of my documents start? has it started once i submitted my appln or will it start after interview only?? If so, will i notified by mail?

2. Should my husband ( who works in Germany since Jan 2013) be present for verfication of my documents when it reaches German embassy?

3. I read in forums that there will be 20,000 INR fee for verification? is it true?

4. How long will the entire verification process take..? 

(I have already submitted my marriage certificate and A1 copies in the appln documetns itself)

1. Your visa application will start getting processed on the day your fingerprints have been provided (5th March). Only then, your online application will be available to process in Germany.  no notification. You will get visa fee receipt.

2. no

3. I am not sure of the amount but they do charge a fee. I am supposing you have not been asked yet.

4. You must enquire whether the marriage certificate will be verfied and when you will be notified abt verification. It will take 6-8 weeks from the day you pay the verification fee.

Good luck

@cebit : Thank you so much for the reply.

3. Yes i have not been asked for any fee other than visa fees.

5. Can I ask the German Consul to speedup the process as i intend to leave on Germany? WIll it afftect my chances of visa approval/rejection? Also Should i ask him/her if they need any certific for verification or will they ask themselves?

1. Your visa process starts when u attend for the interview in chennai. If you have submitted your papers to VFS on FEb 8th, it doesnt mean that you applied fo the visa. VFS only verifies the documents and submit them to embassy. Your time of processing counts from March 5th, when you actually attend for interview.
3. verification of marriage is done in only some cases not in all the cases. So dont put the idea in their mind by asking youself about the verification fee.
5. No you cannot ask the embassy to speedup the process, as every applicant want to come to germany ASAP. So just be calm and count 6 weeks from march 5th. Plus 12 weeks if asked for verification.

Yes there were mixed replies in the forum. As said, varies in each case. I read in few posts that the process of getting visa speeds up if we call ABH / chennai consulate ( embassy?) Is it true? If so, should I call after the interview or before that? Its been a week since I submitted my application. I still havent got any mail/notification asking for marriage verification !! 

Also, what all documents mayb asked in the interview? Share your experiences pls. I have applied from Chennai consulate.

Guys, you really need to keep a lot of patience for this category of visa, atleast in some cases. ask me it's been more than 3 months now but still the ABH in germany says the verification report is not ready from the embassy in delhi and god knows when would i get the visa.....why there is so much delay when i already had the investigation officer visited me in the november end but still..........

anyone outthere who has an input here. my spouse is a german national.

thanks

@rambo,

I have deposited my documents for verification on 29nov2012 and i got result on 29jan2013. But the verification procedure is of 2-3months. In certain cases, depending on the case, the verification time can be extended.

I will advice you to call the embassy directly, or if you have recieved any particular mail id of any Consul officer, so you can write them. It will be helpful.

( visaservice@newd.diplo.de )

Once the verification is compeleted, so they will directly send the result to German Council, and they will not share the result with you. :-/

Thanks.

And I got the call the very next day !

ABH said they sent letter to the consulate. When i asked whether it is approved or not? they said, they cant tell that to me directly.

I am really worried, what will be the result? Waiting with cross fingers.

Yessss..... but ABH saw our original marriage certificate here in germany. and also the consulate in india also said all the documents are ok.  This may be the reason. And also My wife passport has an entry of my name.

But in your case, ur from pakistan and ur husband is a german. So i dont know what is in ur situation needed.
