Hi all!
My name is Isabelle and I am new to this forum. I am a swiss citizen married to an australian citizen. We currently live in Australia but planning to move to Switzerland next year.
We have already registered our marriage in Switzerland. Has anyone experience in applying for a D Visa abroad? I wonder how much time it took and if you had to supply further documents after lodging the application in. Also I am not sure if a visa will be granted when we both haven't got any job nor flat yet in Switzerland!We have some savings aside and could stay at my parents home as a start.
My husband and I intending to travel around Australia from August 2014, then go ahead to Southeast Asia before heading to Switzerland in 2015. The embassy suggested to apply shortly before leaving Australia. My worry though is, that they will ask for further documents which will be hard to organize once we will be traveling in Asia.
I wonder if it would be better to apply now as on the application we can request the entry date (which would be approx. May 2015).
I would be happy to hear any thoughts of you guys!
Thanks a lot!
Isabelle
