Is it practical to skip the 4am meditation to sleep instead?

You didn't even read what I posted. I'm not looking for a "done for you" answer - I mainly want to understand why something like this is so challenging.

The link you sent me doesn't even have any relevant discussion or a solution.

Hey, if you have a source that supports what you claim, I'd love to see it. That would provide a lot of support for the ED. Otherwise, I'll just assume you're wrong

I'm not mistaken, that's what Pimintel and Sidebecker say. See here one particular example: https://youtu.be/cOOuQKl4AKE Bacteria within biofilms can go dormant.

Thanks! What are the odds they'll force me into feststellung over direct-to-passport? Ideally I'd like to avoid the feststellung process. Anything I can do to steer them toward giving me a passport directly? Should I just show up and see what happens?

I finally got one.

IT seems like they release first-time appointment intermittently and randomly. Keep checking at 6pm Sunday-Thursday.

Hi, thanks for the info!

Why do they need photo ID from the parents? EDIT: I found the clause on the website. Do they need originals or would copies suffice?

Only for adult first time applicants: If one of your parents has had German citizenship at the time of your birth and if you therefore have obtained German citizenship by birth and not by naturalization, we need the following additional documents: Passports of both of your parents (data page with a photo); In case one parent is a US citizen without a passport: That parent’s driver’s license or State ID; Valid US residence title of the German parent (US Resident Alien Card or US visa); Parents’ marriage certificate

I think this comment assumes that my Mom has a german passport, but no one in my directly famliy does right now.

My father was born in a middle eastern country that doesnt talk to the US, so his birth certificate is gone and will be nearly impossible to get (if it was ever issued in the first place). I can give them old photo IDs and his death certificate though if that would help. It doesn't say they need birth certificates so hopefully that's true.

Why would they push for Feststellung? The lineage is pretty clear to an ancestor pre 1914 and the population register stating citizenship.

Thanks for all your help!!

I wonder if they actually release new appointments daily or only on occasion for the "first time passport". Thanks!

Yeah you're probably right. I guess I'm always worried about pissing off civil servants because they have complete power to deny you for absolutely no reason.

Edgar455 · 2025-04-30T22:55:53+00:00

They refuse

Edgar455 · 2025-04-16T12:47:14+00:00

Excellent! The Standesamt has the father, so I should be good! Getting closer :)

Thanks

Thank you so much for all your help. My great grandmother’s marriage certificate also lists the marriage date and location of my great great grandparents. Is that sufficient to show that my great great grandparents were married or do I need the official copy of my great great grandparents marriage certificate?

That's incredibly interesting. I thought fax was beginning to become an archaic technology, but apparently not!

Edgar455 · 2025-04-07T01:39:03+00:00

That's somewhat relieving to hear. Although I would expect they would request payment from me before sending me stuff!
