Required Docs & Tips - Schengen Visa

[CARDBITRAGE]

Try using your passport number as your waybill number/Ref No on bluedart’s website

Worked for me when I tried 2 months back.

I know I tried that and it didn't work. Maybe I'll give it a try in the afternoon.

I’m planning to apply for Shengen visa
I’m also married and my spouse is homemaker
I’m also 32

All those bits are matching

Not sure about ITR!!! Can you at least give me an ITR of yours? Do they ask for ITR docs?

I don’t have any prior experience of apply for Schengen visa!!!

Some countries require 2 years of ITR, while others require 3. It is better to verify using the checklist for the country you looking to apply with. I have submitted only my last 2-year ITR and 3-month bank statements for Switzerland.

In my experience, it's important to show that you're employed (using NOC on company letterhead) and that you're married, along with funds in your bank account. Ideally being single or married shouldn't be a factor but for Schengen visa it is.

Hello! I just received my passport and it has been affixed with only a 30-day validity visa(within 3 months) when I had requested for a 2-month visa! Is this normal!? My travel date is just 12 days away, so is there any way to remedy this? This is my first time visiting the Schengen region.

Did you give the itinerary for 60 days?

Did you give the itinerary for 60 days?

YES! I've mailed the consulate now. I had more than enough funds and all the bookings were in place, so I don't know why this has happened. I hope it's some kind of a mix-up.

Update- The Swiss consulate has asked me to submit my passport back to VFS for the visa. They will now issue a new visa for the original requested duration. 1 in a 1000 chance of it happening and it happened to me. 😅
And it’s quite frustrating for it to happen last minute, but I’m glad they are helping me out!

It’s also nice to see that it is possible to get a longer duration visa in your first attempt.

Hope all goes well and you get your visa in time.
