For those of you who don’t know the situation, I’ll ‘splain, no, I’ll sum up.
In order to get a Visa here in Germany you need health insurance that covers very specific criteria. After looking around, I found a company that provided. Took a copy of my coverage to the powers that be and was told that I needed a German translation. Okay, I wrote to my insurance company, they were nice enough to send a letter they use for Visa applicants here in Germany. Took said document back to those who requested, although I don’t think the person who requested, as you’ll find out soon, and was told that it “didn’t count,” I needed an insurance company with a German address.
So…
The Adventure Continues…
Visited the city offices again today. Good news, ‘Chelle and Sheridan both have their Visas for the next nine months. I have my extension until January while they check my health insurance. Should hear something back today on whether it will work for the Visas or I’ll have to get a different provider. In all it has been a wonderful (and by wonderful I mean enlightening, if not wholly frustrating) experience figuring out the process. So that said, I’m having some coffee from an English roasting company that doesn’t roast your beans until you order them, how great is that?!
So, yea! Listening to Shakira, sitting in my apartment, drinking coffee, glad that things are starting to sort out. Another few weeks and I’ll be teaching English to people, with any luck at all.
All for now.
