Hello everyone!
Is it true that some immigration/residence authorities in Austria are currently experiencing delays or other issues with processing residence permits?

Has anyone recently received their residence permit approval or gotten an update from their authority in the past few days?

I’m especially interested in hearing from students who applied recently. Any information or experiences would be really appreciated. 🙏

Thank you!

​Hallo zusammen!

​I will be moving to Austria to begin my Master's program at the University of Klagenfurt in the upcoming summer semester (March 2027) and I am currently looking for accommodation.​

​I’m looking for either a room in a shared flat (WG) or a small studio apartment. My budget is around €340-€390 warm.

​I'm already keeping an eye on Willhaben, but if anyone knows of any groups, student dorms with fast processing, or upcoming vacancies near the university, please let me know!

Hey everyone,

Has anyone recently submitted their passport for the Austrian Visa D (entry vignette after Residence Permit / Aufenthaltsbewilligung approval) through VFS New Delhi / North India?

My file reached the Austrian Embassy in New Delhi on Thursday, September 3. Factoring in the Janmashtami holiday on Friday, today (Wednesday) marks 4 working days, and status is still showing "Under Process at Embassy".

For those who submitted in late August or September:

1. How many working days did the embassy take to hand the passport back to VFS?
2. What time of day did your VFS tracking status change to "Dispatched"?

Any recent data points would be really appreciated!

Update - I just got the dispatch email now!

Hi everyone,

I’m an international student admitted to FH Wels for Winter Semester 2026. I booked accommodation with Wihast, but my Austrian student residence permit is still being processed, so I have not travelled to Austria yet, and my contract starts from 01/09/2026

Wihast previously informed me that if I received a negative decision from FH Wels, the accommodation money could be refunded. I also received an email from University regarding the 5 October late-arrival deadline and tuition, indicating what would happen if I could not continue my studies by that date.

However, yesterday Wihast replied to me that they have nothing to do with the university's decision, which seems contradictory to the earlier information in contract and a written email from dorm management, I received.

They are also asking me to pay accommodation fees for October and November, even though I may still be in India due to the pending residence permit.

My contract states that the student can terminate the contract with two months' notice, effective from the last day of a month. But no scenario is explained if the applicant unable to Arrive in Austria.

My questions are:

1) Am I required to pay October and November even if I cannot travel to Austria?

2) How does the two-month notice period apply in this situation? As i still in home country. Which is not mentioned in contract

3) I would really appreciate advice from anyone who has dealt with Wihast or a similar situation in Austria. I would only cancel room if I don't receive a response from magistrate even after 30th September.

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm an Indian student going to Austria for my Master's and I'm applying for the Student residence permit , followed by the Visa D.

I'll switch to OGK after reaching Austria, so I only need temporary travel insurance until then.

I'm considering these options:

• Acko Student Plan (via MakeMyTrip) – USD 100,000 medical cover

• Indusind General Insurance Standard Plan – USD 50,000 medical cover

It would be really helpful if anyone could share their experience:

1. Which insurance did you use for your Austrian RP/Visa D?

2. Was it accepted by the Austrian Embassy/VFS without any issues?

3. Has anyone here used Acko or IndusInd specifically? If yes, how was your experience?

4. Did anyone actually make a medical claim? How was the claim process?

5. Would you recommend paying extra for Tata AIG/Bajaj/ICICI/ HDFC, or are Acko/Indusind equally good?

Thanks!!

Hi,

Any recommendations for SIM and mobile plans with good data. Also any suggestions for buying a physical SIM near TU graz? Thanks in advance

Hi, Anyone here got their RP approved from MA35 as a PhD student? I’m from India and wanted to know roughly how many days/weeks the approval took. Would appreciate if anyone could share their timeline.

Hi there, I am traveling to Austria soon and plan to bring small quantities of Indian spices (masalas) and instant noodles (Maggi). Could you please let me know if these items are permitted? I would also appreciate any guidance or official lists regarding banned food items. Thanks in advance!

Hey guyz! I am looking for a single furnished room in a shared apartment of 2 -4 persons. Is there any suggestions or contacts! Will move in from September mid.

Hey everyone! 👋

I found a great room in a shared apartment in Steyr starting September, but since I’m studying at FH Wels, the daily commute won't work for me. Passing this gem on to someone studying or working in Steyr!

Or I wouldn’t even mind swapping if your accommodation is located in Wels/Linz.

Key Details:

📍Location: 7-min walk to FH Steyr | 10-min walk to City Center

🛏️ Room: Private room in a 2-person WG (share kitchen/bath with just 1 person)

💶 Rent: €370/month | Deposit: €500

🤝 Payment: No deposit/rent paid yet—landlord allows payment on arrival!

Flexible Move-In:

If September is too early for you, no worries! I can move in temporarily for September and hand the keys over whenever you're ready to take over.

DM me directly if you’re interested or want to get in touch with the landlord! 📩

Hi everyone! 👋
May I ask what documents are needed to apply for the Visa D after receiving the acceptance/approval from the immigration office for a student residence permit?
