Hi, everyone ! I hope you are all having a great time.
I am from the Philippines, and been applying for an Au pair visa to Germany.
I would like to seek some advice or detailed information from my fellow Filipinas who already has an experience with regards to processing an Au pair visa to Germany. I would also love to hear from those who are knowledgeable about it. Here goes my questions:
1. How long does it take for the Host family to get me my health insurance after applying?
2. Do they really have to send me the exact original copy of my health insurance?
3. How about the Meldebescheinigung? Does it have to be in original too?
4. After my Host family have sent me the requirements that I needed from them, do they have to do something in their Embassy/Consulate regarding my visa or whatsoever? Or do they only have to wait for a notification from the German Embassy here in the Philippines after I am done with my appointment? or should they just have to really wait in general?
5. How did you guys do it, entirely? Would love to hear a detailed answer.
6. What are the possible questions that the Embassy will ask during my appointment? I'm screaming for a big help on this one! 😅
Furthermore, I have read the Au pair visa requirements checklist countless times, and I have only read a few that the Embassy will need from my Host. Such as,
A. Au Pair Contract
B. Health Insurance
C. Personal Ids
D. Meldebescheinigung
However, I wonder if there are cases whereas the Embassy might ask for a follow-up document that wasnt listed on the checklist (?) If possibly so, what are they?
P.S I am honestly quite pressured about this, but your advices and replies would definitely help. A million thanks to you all in advance!
