She has applied for German resident visa in july 2023, however, she has not yet received any reply. Pls advise.

Thank you very much for this very helpful information. I live in Nuremberg and my current residence permit is about to expire and haven’t got any appointment from the although I have applied online many days before 😢

Have been waiting for an appointment here in Nuremberg for over 3 months. And this is just for my initial Residence permit.

Hi, thank you for your video it was really helpful. I just want to ask if it’s okay if my work permit has expired and I am still looking for an appointment and staying in Germany, or is it only okay if I already got an appointment before my work permit expired, but the appointment is happening after the expiry date? Thank you

Hello ! Thanks for this valuable information. I have a quesiton, though. I am a Blaue Karte holder, and I am planning to apply for a PR. Can I also apply for the PR for my wife and children? Or should they apply once that I have my PR already ? Thanks in advance for your kind response 👏🏽

Thank you for the video. My passport is expiring this April and already have applied for a renewal of the passport and might take a while to receive the new one, my permanent resident card is also expiring at the same time. What should I do to continue getting SGB 2 while waiting for my passport to renew my resident permit?

Halo! I'm a Student at TU Kaiserslautern. And my student visa is going to expire on 25 April 2023, however when i reached out to Auslanderbehorde, they told that latest dates are available for mid-June. So rightnow I'm in a situation where i might have to live in Germany without visa for like a 1 and 1/2 month. Is anyone going through the same trouble ?

Hello yana, thank you for the videos. I have one question, my residence permit is close to expired, i already send an email to the authorities and i think i can do my ausbildung without problem, but i wanted to do a minijob. Do you know if i am able to have a minijob with an "ungultig" residence permit?? The only thing i have is an automatic answer of the german authorities saying that until they dont answer, the email i sended to them works as a "temporal" aufenhanstitel only in German territories.... Thank you for the video! It was really helpful.

Hello , my residence permit card expires on 10/01/2024 but also on the same card my residence permit ends at 30/09/2024 (Titel Gultig Bis Siehe Zusatzblatt) , can I travel after 10/01?

Getting one of these appointments is the most frustrating experience I ever had with an immigration office. It takes forever. As my first time in Germany entering with a Schengen visa, for my semester abroad. I was not prepared for how hard it is to get the permit. It took me a while successfully registered my address and get a bank account as my appointments for those get delayed back. Then I have to get an insurance and a block account which by the time I did I only had about 6 weeks left so I apply for an appointment through the online portal which gave me no response for 3 weeks and then submit a paper appointment request and nothing came of it yet. This appointment thing is too much of a road block combine with all the other stuff u have to prepare and appointments u have to make every for every step of the way make it feels like marathon. This german appointment thing make everything too annoyingly slow. I just probably gonna have to leave and finish my classes online but this is one of the worst immigration system ever. I heard a lot about how effective and efficient Germans are before I came, well now I know how BS that is. Doing all the appointment by post takes along as time why cant u just show appointment availability slots online and have people select and apply for it. I just don’t understand

Hello everyone , anyone happen to have the email address to Munich foreign office. I had submitted my application and need to follow up with them as my student visa is going to expire soon .

Hallo Jana, Thank you for the insightful video, it was very helpful. My employer has terminated my contract after me having obtained the residence permit (EU Blaue Karte) last month. In the meantime, I have managed to secure a job offer from another employer and the joining date on the contract is stated as 1st of February 2023. I have heard that the residence permit (EU Blaue Karte) needs to be backed by an employment contract and since now I have been terminated, I have only 3 months to secure another fulltime job offer. I wanted to know that can I request my local Auslanderbehorde to extend this period so that I can start working with my new employer from February 2023?

Hallo Mrs Jana, first i thank you for all the vidios which very useful to the people. I'm Buddhika from Sri Lanka and I have followed German courses up to B1/1, but i only have certificate A1/1. I have been to Germany in years 2010 and 2012 for visit. At this moment i am working as a machine operator in a private company warehouse since 3 years. Now one of employer in Lithuania would like to send me a job permit for their branch which locate in Germany.

Hi Yana, do you know how it works if you change the city you live in? My boyfriend from Venezuela came to Berlin with a working visa for 90 days that was supposed to be extended here as he has an unlimited working contract. Now we want to move to Bremen and he still doesn't have an appointment to extend it. Do you know if he can go to the Ausländerbehörde in Bremen? Also if he wants to change the job? As his current visa will expire I doubt that he will be able to get the Wohnungsanmeldung in Bremen, but Berlin is simply impossible. It's all a mess and we don´t know what to do. Help, please...

Hi I am in Hamburg, Germany, After getting a job offer I want to apply for a Work Permit. My Queries 1. Are Work Permits and EU Blue Cards different? 2. If Yes, Can I apply for a Work Permit (for 2 years) and then after 2 years apply for EU Blue Card (4 years)? 3. EU Blue Card is for 4 years, after 4 years Can I extend EU Blue Card because on the Hamburg official website, Extension of EU Blue Card is not mentioned? Thanks in advance Best Regards Vedant Kulkarni
