Dear Sir/Madam,

My Name is Narendra,I done my graduation in mechanical engineering in 2015 with good educational background.currently I'm working as supplier quality engineer in sheet metal manufacturing Industry with 3years experience in my hand.

Now I'm in confusion that i have to move Germany with Job seeker visa or student visa by applying masters?

which one will be the better thing i have to do in your opinion?

I collected all documents for JSV and booked an Appointment for it on October last week.
Started German A1 course recently.

Regards:
Narendra Reddy

Your question is difficult to understand especially due to a poor command of English. The type of visa required depends on what you intend to do. To look for work you need a JSV, which by the way usually means having at least 5 years of professional experience.

If you are going to study for a Master’s degree then you need a student visa. These are very different scenarios. One has to prove they have over 8700 Euros available for living costs to study - and full time working is not allowed while studying.

Here is a link for information (in English) about study requirements in Germany from the German Academic Exchange Service: https://www.daad.de/en/

All official information about visas to work in Germany are found in English at the website of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees:

Also, you posted the same question on 2 seperate threads a day apart. I have requested that the other thread gets deleted. Please post a question once and wait for an answer rather than posting the same thing again!
