I want to apply for German job seeker visa. Is it possible to apply Dependent visa for my family? If yes then can I apply these both simultaneously or it requires a gap? Can anyone throw some light on it?
1 Answer
According to section 29 clause 1 of the German residence act (which regulates dependent visa)
For the purposes of subsequent immigration to join a foreigner,
- the foreigner must possess a settlement permit, an EU long-term residence permit, a residence permit or an EU Blue Card, and
- sufficient living space must be available.
As a job seeker visa does not fulfill the criteria it is not possible to get a dependent visa.
If you would apply to any of the visa in Nr. 1 you could do so simultaneously, it is even advisable if both live currently abroad (29.1.2.2 VwV-AufenthG).
