Students' Residence Permit – Procedure for Sponsor's Haftungserklärung

Geplaatst in Oostenrijk forum

Hello there!

I am an Indian citizen who is soon going to apply for a residence permit to study in Graz, Austria. An Austrian citizen staying there is going to sponsor me. I am aware that my sponsor must issue a Haftungserklärung (Declaration of Liability), and then I must submit this to the Embassy while applying for the permit.

My question is:

After I give this letter to the Embassy, what are they going to do with it? Is there a specific verification procedure they carry out? Or is it that once the letter is issued and notarised in Austria, the letter is already considered valid and doesn't require any further verification?

I ask this because if there is a specific procedure they're going to carry out, my sponsor would have to keep her papers ready, make sure she stays in town, plans her schedule accordingly, etc.

I haven't found anything online that can guide us with how exactly this works. Any inputs would be appreciated.

Have a good day/night!

Best regards,
Christina
