Visa Rejection Reasons
Factors that can get your visa rejected
Lack of Financial Evidence
Having no proof that one has sufficient money to spend during their stay, either through bank statements or financial guarantees, will result in a visa denial.
Inadequate or Inaccurate Documentation
Failure to prepare proper or inadequate documents leads to a direct rejection since all the documentation has to be perfect.
Previous Violation of Visa or Criminal Record
Staying beyond visa, breaching immigration rules, or even having a criminal record previously can be another important reason for your visa denial.
Failure to Provide Strong Ties in Your Country
Inability to show any strong personal, professional, or financial connections to your home country may raise a question over your intention to return.
Improper Justification of Purpose for Visit
Failure or ambiguity in explaining the purposes for visiting a country or failing to provide evidence like itineraries or invitation letters may result in your visa rejection.
Frequently Asked Questions
As the holder of an Opportunity Card, you are not automatically entitled to have your family join you. This is only possible if you change from the Opportunity Card to another residence title. If you apply for the Opportunity Card together with your spouse, children may come to Germany with you.
The German authorities can issue as many Opportunity Cards as they wish. However, this may change if the demand is high. If there is too much demand for Opportunity Cards, the authorities are permitted to impose a specific quota.
The Opportunity Card allows you to work in Germany rather than take up studies. If you want to study in Germany, you must apply and be accepted for a degree program.
The duration of stay in Germany with the Opportunity Card is exactly one year. An extension is possible for up to two years under certain circumstances. If you have already held the Opportunity Card but left Germany after that, you can apply again (after a break of at least one year).
