Hi I am a Bangladeshi National but I am a permanent resident in the united states. I am a student studying engineering and I also have a decent job with an engineering company. I really want to visit my boyfriend who is American on a study abroad program in Germany and i was hoping to visit him during thanksgiving, spring break and summer vacation. I was really hoping to get a 1 year multiple entry visa however it seems that its rarely given out. I am applying at the consulate in Boston and I am getting letters from both my University advisor and my boss. I also have about 10k in my bank account and have purchased one plane ticket with travel insurance. Does anyone know how i can increase my chances of getting a 1 year multi entry visa? or if it is even plausible for me to get one? I speak fluent English and i have been to china, Malaysia, Nepal and Thailand without ever overstaying. Also if i get denied/ get a short visit instead of the one year what are my chances of getting another visa if i apply again? Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

 

So would it be better to apply for a single entry instead of even stating multiple entry on my application? Should i just put exactly how many days i would go for the first time?

In order to do that would I have to buy all the tickets for my trips? Also do you think 8k-10k is enough money to prove financial independence? I am just really nervous. What do you think my chances are based on my profile?

 

Where would i place my reason for asking for multiple visas on the form? There doesnt seem to be a box where I would put that? Also I already bought the first ticket but I will reserve the others instead. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate all the incite you have provided thus far.

 

Would this be acceptable?

To Whom it may concern:
I am writing this cover letter to better explain the information provided in my visa application. I am hoping to acquire the multiple entry visa to Germany to visit my partner who is residing there currently. I would like to visit him for thanksgiving break, spring break and for some time during the summer. The dates for this are as follows :
23/11/2010-29/11/2010, 19/03/2011-29/03/2011, and 20/5/2011-19/6/2011.
This would total to approximately 51 days.
Currently my partner is a resident in Germany living in Braunschweig as an engineering student of the Technische Universität Braunschweig . I have acquired the insurance needed to cover all days included on that list along with extra days around those dates. I have also acquired letters from my employer stating that it is acceptable for me to be absent during these days and University information stating that these dates are breaks between my curriculum work. Although I have never been to any Schegen states before, I have traveled on visit visas to multiple countries.
Sincerely,

Your Signature
