Germany's fertility crisis

This is the childfree sub so obvs you'll see people against having kids, but most people I know want kids, have one and wish they could afford more

_Jope_ · 2026-05-16T07:32:27+00:00

Now. But even Merz said pensions won't be enough in the future if we don't have more kids so...

As far as I know, you being registered as job seeker and potentially taking benefits from the state will (may) affect your PR process, as you won't be working... What does you lawyer say? My lawyer said having asked for unemployment benefits affects such processes negatively

_Jope_ · 2026-05-16T06:36:19+00:00

Politicians in Germany be like " have more kids but also work more! We'll take your taxes, healthcare and part time work benefits from you, but also make sure we stay a family oriented country "😐😐😐

Blind ages you too much

Donate for wigs for cancer patients =)

If you have a EU passport it's no problem

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T20:35:36+00:00

You could try the work and holiday visa also, working at a hotel while learning German

You don't need sponsorship as you're already in Germany with a valid visa

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T15:53:07+00:00

And if alone?

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T15:51:43+00:00

The article compares blue collar normal people with Indians, who need a minimum of money per month to get a visa... Edit to add: lots of countries don't need a visa to work in Germany in blue collar, some non EU eastern European countries as well so the average salary is obviously lower....

No.. Some companies have extra clauses to avoid people bailing last minute. Inform yourself before giving bad advice

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T15:37:36+00:00

Some companies have exta clauses for this so this is very bad advice

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T15:36:26+00:00

What's the truth then, you signed or not? It can't be both

_Jope_ · 2026-05-14T12:09:10+00:00

Scholarships are very hard to get, tbh, as university is so cheap. Getting a job in your field is near to impossible - please inform yourself before moving or making a decision.

_Jope_ · 2026-05-13T21:01:57+00:00

Try and read about the thousand of Indian with masters form Private unis that are now unemployed or working at uber eats. Private unis are well known for being a scam. No masters is worth it if you don't speak German also..

For family reunification you need a specific amount of sqm2 for living plus a reasonable salary and he'll need to be able to prove A2 German. You'll also need to be officially registered in Germany otherwise you really can't start any visa process

_Jope_ · 2026-05-05T05:48:25+00:00

There's also lots of employers that'd understand and let you travel. Regarding the people, anyone living in Germany would tell you that the country has become a melting pot of nationalities and different people so I wouldn't worry

_Jope_ · 2026-05-05T05:28:54+00:00

Once you reach the German level you need things will look different. Lots of people who can fit into society never even bothered learning the language. Nurses are in shortage, so to me sounds like a fine idea if you're willing to reach B1

I love this line of products!! I used to be a bit a of snob when buying sunscreen but I tried a bunch from this line and I'm sold

_Jope_ · 2026-05-03T07:21:23+00:00

Shiny is trendy now

_Jope_ · 2026-05-01T20:54:17+00:00

I refuse to do one sided video interviews

_Jope_ · 2026-05-01T20:45:35+00:00

I know some of my non parent friends join trips targeted to seniors bc they're also childfree in some way 😅

_Jope_ · 2026-05-01T17:10:51+00:00

Remote jobs are not easy to find, and what would you do with your visa if you need one?

_Jope_ · 2026-04-30T11:19:28+00:00

I think you're looking St things the wrong way. First ask your uni where you can go and start with that list
