Hallo Menoncruz

Thankyou for your response.and hoping that it has entered the final stage and I get the stamp soon. Well I don't have any email address to contact the embassy and my husband refuses to contact the authorities in Hamburg :/
All I can do I wait and hope for the best

I got a mail from the chennai consulate stating that i have to pay Rs20000 for the same and some set of documents. I had submitted the documents and the DD on the same week. I got a mail from the aliens office in Cologne on 24th November 2014 asking me to send them some documents to them and i had emailed the documents and they have replied to me that they will send the response to the indian embassy by this week and have asked me to check with the indian embassy by next week. But till now nobody as contacted us regarding the verification process. is there something that i could do to check this out . Please help me out.

Thanks - See more at: http://www.trust7.com/forum/-/message_boards/message/739154#sthash.wnuZ2pYJ.dpuf

Hi,
 
They have asked me the marriage verification. I have send the fees on 11th October to Chennai consulate and verification has not been finished yet.

Hi Marieraj,

Did you contact the chennai consulate on the status. Also did you check with the ABH office on the status of the application ?

Thanks

Hi Marieraj,

Did you get any updates from the chennai consulate ? 

Thanks

Hi Raj,

Look at my case.Its even more pathetic.

Appeared Interview on18.08.2014.
27.11.2014:Received Mail asking for Marriage Certificate Verification-As evident the the mail came after 3 months 9 days.
29.11.2014: Documents and DD of Rs. 20000 sent.
2.12.2014: Documents delivered as per the Courier Service provider Website

Now the mail says the marriage certificate verification process will take atleast 3 months after the receipt of documents and demand draft. Does that mean, I can only expect some feedback from Embassy after approximately 7 months from the interview date?

I was supposed to travel wid my husband on 18.10.2014 and this is where I am today. All I can say is..Save me Lord.

Hello,

They did the verification for me in about 7 weeks time so i guess u will be getting ur process finished within 8 or 9 weeks.

I got aproval and have submited my passport for stampin

Raj

Hey,

Good to know that ur approval has come.Congratulations!!

I think it took about 6 months for u to get ur visa. So going by that i still have to wait for 1 more month for some response from Embassy. Anyways all's well that ends well. So all the best and happy travelling..

Thanks,

I am leaving on 19th Jan 2015. I wish u good luck as well.

from reading other comments it seems i have provided sufficient details to proceed my verification process....i heard that at karachi consulate, process is a little bit faster...anyone had experience at karachi consulate?

I've not had any experience with Karachi Consulate. But if your husband is a blue card holder. Then you should get your visa very quickly. In 2 or 3 days time.

Hi All,

is anybody aware of the agency that is doing the family reunion verification process in chennai. my visa is pending for more than 4 months now.

Thanks,

I will be touching 6 months on 17 feb and still no word from german embassy. All dey did is collected 20k in the name of marriage verification, which i feel is so unfair. And for marriage verification also dey have not approached me.
Numerous mails sent but no proper response. If dey are anyways going to take dis long dey are atleast supposed to repond to our queries.

Sorry to hear this.
If your spouse is in Germany than ask him to personally meet the ABH.
It may help to speed up the process from what I have read on this site.

All the best!!

Thanks for your concern. My  husband is very much in Germany. We were supposed to go together but I didnt get my visa. However he got it within a month and left for germany. He made his company HR to contact ABH whicn in turn came back saying we dont handle personal requests. Again after 5 months the HR set a mail, to which they never replied.
I really dont know what to do...whom to contact..I dont even know..if anaything is happening. I cant beleive..how can they not respond to our queries.
I would really appreciate and welcome suggestions possibly with any contact number wherein I can call to some info on my visa status.
PS. My husband is in Cologne

hi Gvisa

Whats the update in my case.

My situation is also almost same like you. No response from any one at all. added to that they even never asked me to pay 20000 or marriage certificate document etc etc.
request you to tell me if you have any good pointers.

Hi,

What is ur visa application date? For me its 7 months now. I sometimes wonder..will I ever get visa. 
For me though, it seems the marriage verification is over and the report/documents have gone to Germany. Atleast that is what is informed by aliens authority people. 

The problem with my case is that the Marriage Verification mail itself came after 3 months 9 days from the Visa application date. Then the verification process took full 3 months and they returned my documents on 28.02.2015. 

This is definitly not a right place... to may be mention this..but still I would say that waiting for this dependent visa thing has been really traumatizing...and this waiting time has eaten up a very crucial phase of my life...and the funny thing is ..the wait is still on...

My visa application date is 9 th December 2014 and there is no reply neither mail stating that marriage verification is needed I wonder and worry now that after some days or weeks or months they may come up with marriage verification and again 3 months... It's already 17 weeks without marriage verification. Please post me u r updates. I will do so if I have any. And any pointers as to how will I know if they say marriage verifverification is needed after some days? And how did u know in u r case that marriage verifverification is needed after 3 months 9 days is it u got directly mail or before u enquired with anyone? Also just to mention I got my marriage certificate verification done personally from ministry of external affairs govt of india . Do u think this should suffice or it doesn't work. Request your inputs please

Dont worry..may be in your case verification is not required at all. Verificatin is not necessarily done for each and every case.
Consulate people send Marriage Verification mail if it is required, as was in my case. I did send many mails before that but there was no response and Marriage Verification mail also definitly was not a result of it. 

I rather feel worried. As when i tried contacting Auslanderbehorde, they have clearly mentioned me that it is pending due to marriage verification documents pending from Consulate.
Whereas Consulate says if they require marriage certificate verification they would send mail to my wife or me asking for 20000 and submit marriage certificate.

And also informed me that since we didnt get any mail which means they dont need it.

I somehow feel that there is huge communication gap between Consulate and auslanderbehorde and i feel that now this process will not go anywhere except these auslanderbehorde guys waiting for verification documents from consulate and consulate guys waiting for an approval from ausalnderbehorde team.

I tried to explain to both but in vain, they are just saying what they are saying over last 1 week.

I am completely frustated and dont know where and how to proceed further..

Do give me updates in your case.
