Hello boss, pls i send u a PM. Kindly check ur mail.

Eke40seven:

In what regards? Do you mean by law or that this is generally a time period you are not allowed to work? I don't really understand where you are coming from but one is allowed to work right when you step in as long as you have your work permit, either permanent or temporary.

Boss, on the average how long does it take to get a work permit after arriving. ( all things being equal).

tanx boss....replied also

Request for an enrolment extension from your university, if possible.

Thaddnally:
Hi Guys,
I just got ission to study scientific instrumentation at the university of applied science Jena dated 25th July 2018, I applied for visa appointment on the 27th still yet to get a reply from the embassy. Information I got from the embassy that no more visa appointment for winter section and I have completed my blocked since last year when I first applied for the same from the embassy that they have booked out student visa for winter session. My question is....how can I still go for this visa appointment coz my enrollment date is on the 10th of October 2018. I'm just speechless, after long waiting

peemyke:
ask the university you'll attend for a breakdown of living expenses. Without this, I don't think any bank would want to fund your blocked .

Already did but zenith bank said they can't use form A cos I'm d recipient of the cash too

go to another bank. Tell them that the money will be used to pay your semester fees, health insurance as well as living expenses.

Boss, on the average how long does it take to get a work permit after arriving. ( all things being equal).

This depends on which jurisdiction your city registration/foreign office falls under. For some small town or registration area, you can your house and proceed to the immigration office for your visa extension (i.e resident and work permit inclusive) all within one week. A temporary permit will be issued to you pending the time your card will be produced. with this, you can work legally.

In other cases, you need to book an appointment to even your house or visit the immigration for visa extension and this can take between one to four months on the average.

To clarify my explanation.... in the Hauptstadt KIEL these process takes between one to four months on the average to issue a resident/work permit. Funny enough there are some suburbs around KIEL (10 to 15 minutes by bus) where the process of house registration and issuance of the resident/work permit is just within a week (No appointment is needed here)

Tip: Relate with folks living in your destination city... There might be a way to fasten the process likewise to get some hustle in the meantime.

There are some jobs you don't need any registration for Z.b UMZUGHILFE (Moving Help) and some more... (relate with kind guys in your destination city for OT)....

Their decision is obvious enough already,
Don't spam them with mails, pray they decide to give you a slot, else check if the course is taken in summer, if it is, you can defer your ission till summer.
Just few months away.
Sorry.

Boss, on the average how long does it take to get a work permit after arriving. ( all things being equal).

I believe that your visa from Nigeria comes with a conditional work permit... When you arrive, you can go to your KVR or foreigners office or whatever it's called in your city and ask for a temporary work permit. This is after your enrollment in school, city registration and and insurance. In Munich, you can get it same day, I don't know about other cities... So how fast you get it now depends on how soon you are able to do these things, which can range from a day to never.

If U Are Familiar With The Appointment Booking Process, Just Carefully And Prayerfully Give It A Shot, But, People Have Been Lamenting The Closure Of Booking Process For The Session. Again, U Can Try Finding Out If You Can Use The Current ission For Summer. All The Best
