Greetings to everyone
I am an Engineer from Karachi, Pakistan working in a company for over 4 years. I have chosen to study further in Germany (M.Sc. in Engineering). However, I am married and I want to take my wife with me to Germany. I can take care of the expenses (such as housing, insurance etc.) for my wife by myself. I searched the official German visa website but did not find any valuable information about "dependent visa on a student visa". I have following questions with me:
1. Is it allowed for a student to take a dependent (wife) with him to Germany while he is on a student visa?
2. If 1 is yes, then how? What is the visa procedure and what are the pre-requisites? (Proof of income? German language requirements etc.)
3. If 1 is no, what are the alternate options? (I don't want to stay away from my wife for 2 years.
4. What if I am having a scholarship? Then am I allowed to take my wife with me in Germany.
Can someone please help me out?
Thanks in advance.
