Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Hello forum,
I thought I had all under control, what went wrong? I applied for the citizenship on 30.04.08 after 7 years beeing in Germany (from 17.04.2001). 5 yrs GC + 2 yrs NE.
I submitted:
- Einbuergerung's Form Request
- Passport with NE
- Birth certificate
- Loyalitaetserklaerung
- Invoices copies(I'm freelancer since 12.07 with fix salary)
- B1 Certificate
- Orientierungskurs Teilnahme Certificate
- Photo
Yesterday I got a letter from Regierungspraesidium Darmstadt saying.
"When checking your papers I found out that the 8 years minimum residence period is not complete. It will be consider after 06.2009.
Die Ruecknahmegebuehr wuerde 127.50 Euro und die Ablehnungsgebuehr 191.25 Euro betragen."
So the questions is what did I do wrong? Before I contact him, I would like to know your opinion. Maybe he did not get the B1 + Orientierungskurs certificate?, I will send them again.
Integrationskurs = B1 + Orientierungskurs, right?
Guys thank you very much for your time!

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Hi Javi,
I have applied before few days for the Citizenship under the same 7 years rule as you.
The first paper the Beamte asked for was the official confirmation from BAMF that I'm fulfilling the integration requirement to take advantage of 7 years rule.
By the way,I have applied for that BAMF Confirmation myself directly by sending a copy of my ZD & Orientierungskurs certificates and after two weeks they sent me a nice colored official confirmation which made the Beamte happy 
Just ask them if you can get the confirmation and add it to your file? Good Luck.
Cheers,

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
@
What happened with Javi this is not normal. Normally Standesamt is asking for all the papers before sumitting. If they accept the papers then there should not be anything wrong with Darmstadt ?I would suggest to discuss someone with Standesamt.
Are there an new rules in place in 2008? I applied last year Dec but I did not submit anything like BAMF ?
I have only received a paper from Darmstadt after 5 month that I need to inform them if there is anything change like job, addrss and so on. What does it mean by that ? Are they processing my paper or what ?

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Guys thank you very much for you answers.
@IT-Expert: Thanks a lot that's an excellent information. I will try to do the same. If you have time and "Lust", maybe you can give us a little more detail on how to do this (how, where, how much, etc). I will google anyway.
@hellonews: I will try what IT-Expert suggested, It makes sense to do it if it only takes two weeks.
I think there is a new rule in 2008 but this will take effect after 09.2008 (Einbürgerungstest).
I have also received the same letter as you did, two weeks ago. (1.5 months after submission). They just let you know the papers started being processed and if you change anything like job, address, marital status, etc. you should inform them.
Thanks again.

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Hola Javier
is VERY important to know under with article processed your forms.
If they noted (or you filled) an incorrect "Absatz" (§) your case is considered under different parameters. Please have a look on this forum another "Einburgerung" cases.
Is also important to know where do you live. I heard some cases from people who directly were adviced to avoid presenting the papers before 8 years even they could easily be included in the 6 or 7 years exceptions.
So, if you don't mind, could you share with us the § stated in the papers and where did you present the request?

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Hola all again,
@YO: It is a shame I do not have a copy of the submitted form at the moment, so I cannot provided with the exact §. But I can tell I did the submission in Ruesselsheim (Hessen). If I remember well there were some successful cases in Hessen described in this forum.
@love09: Advantages: you can work in Europe (not only Germany) without working permit (don't remember details like exactly which countries), You will have the visa acceptance of Europa when traveling abroad. Disadvantages: you have to give up your own nationality. This might mean, in some cases, that you will need a visa to visit your own country (e.g: if you are chinese)
Update on BAMF confirmation: I called and they said I have to call to BAMF in Frankfurt (nobody answers today). It depends which kind of B1 I have (Goetheinst.) and where I did the Orientierungskurs (VHS).
Does anybody else have any experience with B1 + Orientierungskurs without Integrationskurs?
Guys thank you very much again.

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
@javier
Common sense is a sense which is very uncommon among Regierungsbeamten 
Integrationskurs = B1 + Orientierungskurs
...is not exactly
B1 + Orientierungskurs = BAMF-zertifikat
BAMF-zertifikat = Integrationskurs

Re: Citizenship with 7 years. What went wrong?
Ok here an update on the issue (a bit late but it may be useful for some people)
I have written an email to BAMF in Frankfurt. You can find the address that suits better to you under this link
http://www.bamf.de...-node.html?__nnn=true
they requested a copy of both the B1 and the Orientation course certificates. And after one week I got my Integrationskurs Certificate
cheers!
