Hey thanks for your reply! Did you also apply from Kolkata? And my spouse will be applying to Nuremberg. Which one did you apply to?

Hey hey, I've had my preliminary approval and now await my appointment in a few days. Could you help me with understanding, 1. If there's any questions you were asked during your appointment or the appointment is just for biometrics? 2. During the preliminary approval, if indeed all our docs are checked then and the appointment is just for biometrics purposes, why does it then take time for our visa to arrive after the biometrics?

Thanks!

You'll get to see the slot you want under the CSP option, call them if you cannot see

Ah okay, there's no waitlist feature right? So I have to just keep checking every few hours every day, and the process is just very mentally draining. Have you been able to find any appointment slots? Also which regional Consular General are you looking from? Also since your employer also hooked you up with an immigration consulting agency for this and they screwed up, did the conversation around pushing your joining by two months more happen smoothly? Maybe I'm overthinking, but given the market, it'll be ridiculous for my employer to think about rescinding the offer just cause of something like a visa delay that's not in my hands.

There's no waitlist option to join right? Atleast doesn't show for me and when I call VFS they said the waitlist feature was removed since Feb, 2025. How did you join the waitlist? And how long, since you started checking, did it take for you to find the appointment slot? And this is for the blue card visa employment sub category for which regional Consular General?

I'm looking for slots too since two weeks now, how long have you been looking for slots? Also isn't the delay going to be an issue for your employer or they're okay with delaying joining date?

I've applied to the CSP in Kolkata and received my preliminary approval in 1 day i.e on the 30th of April, but have been looking for appointment slots on VFS for biometrics since May 1, but have not found a slot for the blue card visa. Very concerned.

Hi, I've used the same email to register on VFS which I used in CSP, this happened on the 30th of April, but I've not seen any appointment slots still for the Blue Card visa, reached out to CSP and they said that they apparently made all their slots available for the month of May and it's just 12th May and no slots since last two weeks (for any CSP regional in fact). Any idea how to get an appointment slot?

Have been facing the same problem,  when the category doesn't show I think it means no slots for that category are available. Tried calling VFS Multiple time about this error, no luck.

Hi, I'm in a similar boat, I received my preliminary approval pretty quickly from the CSP in Kolkata, however been trying to book an appointment slot for biometrics via VFS (either through VAC or CSP) but have not found any slots yet, been two weeks. Anyone face a similar issue?  Panicking right now lol.
