Hi! Greeting from Düsseldorf. I lived in Ireland before and in order to learn English I spent all my saving and I lived there for 3 years learning English. I moved to Germany and here in less than 27 months I already worked, saved money and I am now learning the B1 level of German. My case is weird since I could prove the B1 in some months but at that time I would have reach the 27 months and A1 level of German will be enough. I encourage everyone to make an effort and sacrifice, it worths it. Thanks so much both for your great work and support!

Hello! I have an EU Blue Card, and the remarks on it state "18B ABS.2." However, on the official website, it mentions that the fast-track process is applicable to "18g." Is it true that only holders with "18g" are eligible for the fast track, or can any Blue Card holder apply if they meet the necessary requirements? Thanks!

I have passed the exams telc Deutsch B1 and Einburgerungstest, though I have not attend any course for them but with my own preparation with your material for 'Leben in Deutschland'. 😇 Foreign office in Friedberg (Hessen) has sent me this checklist: - Arbeitsvertrag - Mietvertrag - Wohnraumbescheinigung (anbei) - Letzten 3 Lohnabrechnungen - Nachweis Integrationskurs - Sprachzertifikat A2 oder höher - Rentenversicherungsverlauf - Antrag Niederlassungserlaubnis (anbei) I have all the required documents except 'Nachweis Integrationskurs'. Even after having Einbürgerungstest Zertifikat they want a course completion certificate. I have not done Integrationskurs or Orientierungskurs as I am working full time. I don't find that as a requirement in BAMF/Make-it-in-Germany website. What can I do in this case? What could be my next steps?

Hi Jen and Yvonne. Thanks for the video. I feel like there is no point on applying for permanent residency if you already have a blue card. With Blue Card, they usually give 4 years of residency permit and you can leave the country up to 12 months compared to 6 months with permanent residency. Then, you can renew it once and apply for citizenship (or you don't even have to renew it if you have C1 German). Is it possible to directly apply for citizenship without the permanent residency?
@simplegermany
@simplegermany Ай бұрын
Your point is valid and it is completely an individual decision. The Blue Card should suffice to apply for citizenship, however, some residence permits don't work as a basis for citizenship - the small numbers on the permit make the difference. To find out for your case, we suggest taking the test which we link in the description as it asks about exactly the type of permit you hold to assess your case 😊
@insaintmusic
@insaintmusic Ай бұрын
There is. With the Blue Card, your ''temporal'' residency is tied to your job and your contribution to the system. If you stop working, you will get another Aufenthaltstitel (ID - temporal residency) as a Job Seeker with a shorter expiration date. If you want to be self-employed, you must request this work permit with another entity in charge: Arbeits Migration. It is a long process, in which they coordinate with the local chamber of commerce and you need to send a lot of documents (Business Plan, financial projections, and you need to answer why your project is beneficial for Germany). I've been waiting already 4 months for their answer, wish me luck! If you are a permanent resident, you could easily create a company, work as a freelancer, part-time, and not necessarily related to your profession.

Thanks for the great content! I have a question regarding permanent residency (PR) for Blue Card holders. The immigration office (Landesamt) requested that I provide a Leben in Deutschland certificate as part of my PR application. However, I currently hold an A1 German language certificate and have been living and working in Germany for over 33 months, which I believed would be sufficient for PR. I'm a bit confused because the Leben in Deutschland exam seems to require a higher level of German proficiency than A1. Isn't this a contradiction? Shouldn’t my current qualifications meet the PR requirements, or is there something I'm missing?

Our research shows that the timeframe in which you paid contributions matters. It also states that you need to proof that 'you have a basic knowledge of the legal and social system and of the way of life in Germany'. One way to do that is via the LiD. Ultimately, it depends on your case worker and Ausländerbehörde what they will accept.

Sure you can qualify to apply for a PR in 21 months if you meet all the criteria, but to get an appointment at the ABH takes another 21 months and to finally get the PR, it's gonna take another few months, so in total 40-45 months hahaha🤣🤣🤣 . .

The requirements for PR also differs from City to City. I have a Blue Card and I was past 27 months with A1 Certificate but when I applied for PR in Cologne, they required to have a Leben in Deutschland, even though that was only in case you are applying after 21 months with B1. Mind you that with only A1 a person is in no way capable of comprehending and doing Leben in Deutschland which needs to be done in German. I had to understand 300 questions and bruteforce memorise them before going to the exam. Annoying thing is, It's been almost 5 months since I took the exam and I still haven't got the certificate and in the meantime I'm almost done with B1. It feels like even though they shortened the minimum duration required to apply for a PR but nothing changed.

Hi! Maybe a unique question about my personal situation. I came to Germany 5 years ago to do a Master's, finished the degree and then got a job seeker permit (AufenthG 20), during which i earned a salary that paid into my Rentenversicherung for 8 months. At the start of last year, I switched to a 'skilled workers with academic degree' permit (AufenthG 18b) and continue to pay into the Rentenversicherung to present day. My question is, as a german university degree holder who would like to apply for Niederlassungserlaubnis after 24 months, do my 8 months contributing to the Rentenversicherung while on the job seeker visa count? Taking into account the months I've contributed to Rentenversicherung since I switched to my current permit (17 months so far), am i already eligible to apply for Niederlassungserlaubnis? Thank you!

Both take different times and langauge levels. Looks like oral instructions to reduce issuing BC so that govt can delay settlement permits.

Unfortunately, German bureaucracy does not allow you to apply for permanent residency (PR) after 21 months. The problem is that once you arrive in Germany, it takes at least 6 months to receive your Blue Card, and in most cases, it can take even longer. This means that, in reality, Blue Card holders can only apply for PR after 30-31 months
@simplegermany

I have a quick question regarding the statement on the website you've shared that says, ‘You have paid into the statutory pension insurance scheme for 24 months’ for people who have studied and graduated from a university in Germany. I am currently working part-time (around 20 hours per week) as a working student in my field, and my payslips show contributions to the statutory pension insurance scheme (Rentenversicherung). Does this mean I will be eligible to apply for permanent residency (PR) after I graduate and secure a full-time job, or would I need to continue working in a position that contributes to the Rentenversicherung for another two years before applying? 😁 I know you are here to inform us and probably not 100% sure but just wanted to check :)

Yes, we have also come across the count as half - however, we didn't go into depth on working student in our research. It also depends on how your studies get classified - if they get considered as 'gewöhnlicher Aufenthalt'.

The number of monthly contribution becomes a secondary concern, the amount of time worked in a full time job still stands as the initial barrier to entry. The process is streamlined and made keeping this exact situation in mind. Also, any student job that ideally contributed to your academic growth aren’t put in the same basket as working full time. So, the clock starts ticking when you are in either a job or a PhD as a candidate.

Oh noooooooooo, I think my residency in Germany won't count for permanent residency 😔. I'm a researcher with an 18D visa, and I've been here for 3 years. I want to get permanent residence now that I've lived here for the minimum 3 years. But the trouble is that I've only contributed to my pension for the first 8 months of my time here in Germany. After those first 8 months, I switched from an employed position to a Scholarship position, which doesn't include things like health insurance or pension contributions. Maybe if I contact my pension fund, I'll be able to retroactively pay for the months I've been on a scholarship 🤔... I sure hope I don't have to live here in limbo for another 3 years just so I can pay into a fund.
