Visa extension.

Hello Everybody:
First of all I wanna congratulate you because of this page that gives many important information.
I am a peruvian girl of 22 years old actually living in Holland for 10 months, I have a German boyfriend and he would like me to live with him but my visa will be finished by October this year so, we would like to know if it is possible that I get an extension visa and we should do. Thank you so much for your help.

Hola Marycarmen

I would like you to know as an Au Pair you have only two ways of renewing your visa from Europe:

1- You can start studying. I don´t know how but you are allowed to stay here for studying purposes, you have to find a university, make some tests and change your visa

2- You can marry your boyfriend.

The other possibilities are your boyfriend can invite you to come, but for this option you have to return to Peru and process there your papers

Mucha suerte

YO

Re: Visa extension.

Hi

If you have a normal Schengen Visa, there is another option and that is you can be in any country of Europe as a tourist for three months. I guess Peru need a visa to enter in any country of Europe.

Otherwise, you have to check with the German Embassy of your country, but usually the tramit for a wedding or "civil union" takes between two and three months.

Regrettably, the German Peruvian Embassy web site is crowded, I cannot get in but check here:

By the way, if you want to change your visa to a study visa, you need to demonstrate you have enought funds to live in Germany without help.

But I guess the best is you consult our specialist: Leo. Just search the web for his name. He is also peruvian!

Insisto, suerte
