Well, you could have got registered marriage, that would have helped you bringing your wife along with your after your marriage :-)

Hi Raj,

thanks for support..
even if i do reg.marriage. How can its possible without applying visa ?? i tought of this reg marriage, but there is no good days so i dropped the idea. (family didnt agreed)

today i called hyd Goethe institute reg German course. they said its already started (2 weeks before..its acrash course 6 weeks).
what type of course my Fiance should take?
she should complete the course only from Goethe or any other institutions is also ok??

Hi,
The certificate they need is an A1 from goethe institut. Even if the course is taken outside , there is a possibility to just register for exam at goethe institut and pass the A1 exam.

Even with the registered marriage, embassy at later stage of visa processing might ask for marriage pictures (atelast 10 with names of the persons to be written on the back of pictures)to verify the apostilled/attested certificate.

I think if one can take the exam before the visa and have A1, it saves one month. Be prepared for a span of 3 to 4 months after applying visa at the konsulat.
cheers

Hi rajendrak and all,

Hi Sinu78,

Goethe Hyd will be starting weekend course from sept 27th,2008.It will end in mid Jan I guess. This is what they told me when I enquired abt the same.

greetings.

Alternatively in chennai and bangalore, goethe instituts have courses starting every month for a month and on the last day they conduct the test.
You can find those infos on goethe websites of respective centers.
That would be better I guess.
