    Hi Khosi! I'm in the same boat as you. South African living in the UK. It's so annoying when all my British friends are like, "let's go to France for the weekend" and I have to let them know it doesn't work like that for me😢

    So I had an issue with this first port of entry thing - my visa was issued my Spain but I decided to travel to France instead as a first port of entry to the Schengen area. At the airport the border control initially refused to let me (speaking in French), reason being I should go to Spain first. I went to a different counter and had no issues.
    So it’s a tricky one!

    Question re the proof of economic means. It states in my documents that I need 108 euros per day per person with a minimum of 972 euros always reflecting in the bank statement. I'm going for 12 days so does that mean I need 972 euros plus an extra 108 euros per day for 12 days? That's hefty for us who has to pay in rands😮

    I got a job in German and I was ask to fill a background check form then then the company told me to submit references like company phone number, offer letters and payslips from my previous employer, I told them there’s no way I can get it, since I only do part time jobs here in dubai.
    Then they ask me if there’s no any authorized place that can provide it for me ?
    Upon hearing that, I quickly went for editing payslips and offer letters.
    I was asked to send my original police criminal clearance certificate by post, i send it to them through dhl. Then they told me to wait for the next 10 weeks for the authorities to decide. And they didn’t ask me to pay any money
    My question is: 1) is that a legit way of processing employment visa?
    2) is it possible to start a process for someone without video or call interview?
    3) We didn’t even have an agreement signed offer letter
    Pls can someone pls tell me something about this?
