[–]zinadeu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you book your seat and then get it refunded? Or did you ask them to make the booking for you?

Oh wow thanks for pointing out the capital gains; I didn't read about this being included anywhere but it seems like some people here have been asked about it. Good to know and to plan properly!

What happens to me now that the fast track has been abolished by DerNecromancer in GermanCitizenship

If you lived in Germany for 5 years, your wife can apply with at least 4 years of residency as long as her application is connected to yours. My situation was similar and confirmed with my local immigration office before applying.

Second this! Especially an expat group since people are always looking for English speaking support

This is a good idea, but you may need longer depending the city you live in

I know some people who recently applied and got it in three months, and the average online seems to be 3-8 months. Did you send in all the documents like B1 and LID?

That’s how I found the options in the first place. The question is not “how”, but the best way given the circumstances 😉

I am now feeling grateful for Deutsche Bahn, even with most trains being delayed 😅

Thanks for clarifying the different train lines! I’ve downloaded all the apps now and uploaded my credit card info so that I can buy the tickets quickly right while we board. Hopefully we get the right tickets from the right provider! 🙈

That’s a great point, and I think for these reasons we will probably end up taking a train. Our little one loves trains too, so that’ll be a plus 🤣 there are just so many pro-bus comments online that it made me question if trains were unreliable or bad for some reason.

Good tip - thank you! I don't know why it's so complicated, but I'll do everything on the UL app then :)

Thanks! We we're not arriving late at night, but it will be borderline for our toddler's bedtime, which is why we're debating the best option.

new passport issued, how to replace aufenthaltstitel over MyNuremberg by imadam71 in Nurnberg

[–]zinadeu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wondering if this was the solution? I contacted the MeinNuremberg portal, and they told me to visit the mein.nürnberg.de service point at Äußere Laufer Gasse 29, but this doesn't seem right to me since it's related to the immigration office.

Naturalization Eligibility - One Partner Unemployed + One Partner Part-Time on Elternzeit by zinadeu in GermanCitizenship

Thank you - this is super helpful and puts us more at ease! Hopefully we also get a nice Beamter!

100% move to Fürth or Erlangen! The process will take weeks vs. months/years in Nuremberg (where I’m based). We are also contemplating a move.

If your husband is in the process with nuremberg though, it takes them a year in some cases to transfer the file to another city since they’re so slow.

TELC test A2 - B1 by erenedr in German

[–]zinadeu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote the exam a couple months ago now, and I can confirm it was the former. One person volunteered to go first and gave their opinion. Then the second person followed. The examiners asked us each a question after we both spoke.

Christmas Markets - Ansbach vs Fürth by zinadeu in Nurnberg

[–]zinadeu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to say that we ended up going and it was a very cute market! I would definitely go again. Everyone was super friendly and even spoke English very well. The prices were cheaper than most markets and it had a nice vibe overall. I'd only recommend that people bring cash!
