Do I need to show the blocked amount of 11,904 euros separately for my daughter under the family reunification visa, or can she come along with my blocked amount in Germany?

It depends. For a family reunification visa to Germany, you must show proof of sufficient funds to support yourself and your dependents.

- €11,904/year is the typical blocked account (Sperrkonto) amount required for a single applicant.
- For dependents like your daughter, the embassy may require you to show a higher total amount, not a separate blocked account, but additional funds above the base amount are usually needed.

The exact required sum can vary by embassy and family size. Requirements are subject to change.

For your specific case, your LeapScholar counsellor can guide you on the current financial documentation needed.
