I remember hearing about it a lot when they reopened after the covid shutdowns. I guess they still use it to accommodate employees who may have certain health conditions or family members with such.
Maybe try asking in the military section. Even if your spouse is not military the process is the same. There are a couple that filed their N400 while abroad.
Then I would leave it empty. I know we are so trained in not leaving anything empty, but since you answered no before the question is clearly not meant for you.
Just looked at my form. Q16 isn't answered on my form. Did you answer yes on Q 15a or b? No need to answer here, but I guess since I answered no question 16 didn't came up for me.
That's why you see so many Germans in this thread. We all jumped on it as soon as we could hoping it all works out with an interview/ oath after june 26th 🤣
We just applied 😅 but I feel you. So close to the finish line.
Super stupid question, but did you try to hit the next button? I got this, too and I have zero children. You don't have to upload anything at this point. The online form improved, but it's still not completely smart, and the button looks clickable.
From what I've seen here is that most who applied online received an almost instant message that biometrics will get reused. The ones who had to go to do biometrics got an appointment notice about a week after filing. It's been a month now and I haven't heard either. I know that it's not long in the greater picture. I'm not complaining, just looking for experience.
Anybody else had to wait longer to hear something about biometrics? How long did it take?
Until recently Germany only allowed dual citizenship under special circumstances. The law was changed to allow dual citizenship and made public, but it won't go into effect until June 27th.
Welcome. Hope it goes over smooth and easy for you. I didn't get the notice either and haven't heard something since applying. Still hoping for a biometrics reuse 🤞
Der sagte, dass sobald mein neuer pass in NYC ist krieg ich ne nachricht das ich den alten dahin schicke und dann beide zurueck bekomme. Stattdessen kam dann aber ganz underwartet der neue pass.
Mein letztes Standesamt is allerdings Kleinstadt in BW. Da is wahrscheinlich auch einfach nich so viel los wie Berlin Mitte 🤣
