awesome! thank you! congrats man! i was working on getting my italian citizenship as my american father has italian ancestry but i think the german process would be much more efficient.
You’ve given me so much hope. Thank you! A question though: what documents did you give (obviously please don’t give out your personal info) to prove this? Thank you
The short answer is a filled out declaration form. My mom's green card, birth certificate, and passport. My parents marriage certificate. And then my passport and ID card. They may need more from you depending on the circumstance but I'll put a link below that will take you right to all the info :) www.germany.info/us-en/service/03-Citizenship/-/2479488
@geranienbaum I’m aware. Just cringe that someone thinks German citizenship is a huge deal. Classic Pole. Gaining German citizenship is big for them then they are allowed to travel the world yet they don’t allow Muslims to immigrate into their country. Living in the Stone Age but love to suck off the EU and say they are civilized.
Your situation sounds like the same as mine. I was just looking into the process and lawyers want thousands of dollars to process the paperwork but I think I’m going to simply make an appointment at the German Consulate and have all my documents in hand. Thanks for the video, awesome news for you!
@@Neekss Thanks, I have my appointment scheduled with the German Consulate here in the states and will start filling out the forms and gathering my documents.
@@christianmorrison164 I did this in 2014. You will need the "Application for confirmation of German nationality Form F" and "Appendix V: Family member." They offer these in English, but the English ones are only for assistance, you must fill out the German form in German. For this, you can do a Google translate of answers like "Geburtsstaat: Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika". You will also need all birth, marriage, death, and any other document like a family member's draft registration or naturalization application and certificate. These can usually be found through vital records. If there are any questions, you must provide an answer and documentation backup. They can review your documents at your appointment before they submit them. When they reviewed mine, they raised a question on one of the documents that seemed it was possible my relative had naturalized to a different country before arriving in the USA. I needed to do a search to prove that there was no record of them naturalizing in that country. After getting all documents and pre-answering any questions they might have, you will need to translate all materials into German. When I arrived at the consulate to submit my papers, the guy who reviewed them before submission said that my application was one of the most detailed and organized he had seen. I replied, "Of course, because I'm German." He laughed. I was approved and received my yellow paper 12 months later. 1 more month for my passport.
"But in Germany, everybody eats chocolate and ice cream all the time" literally a dream. Also congrats on your passport! Also I think the burgundy color with the gold is better.
Congratulations my man! That is one of the best things you did in life ! By the way if your Dad's family is Italian You can get that as well :) Find out where his family came from
Interesting that you applied via the consulate in your home country and that you received your citizenship within such a short time. I had to send all my documents to the "Bundesverwaltungsamt" in Cologne and that was NINE months ago. To this day, I've not heard anything. I did email them in Germany to ask if they have received my paperwork and was given a reference number of my case. But that's it. Did the consulate send off your paperwork to Germany? My consulate just advised me to print out the paperwork and apply direct to Germany.
I was really lucky that I had a consulate in my state. So I was able to talk with someone directly which made all the difference. I actually gave the woman at the consulate my paperwork and she sent it in, which might be why it all happened so fast. I also think it's possible to send your documents into your nearest consulate, and they will send your paperwork to Cologne for you. This allows you to get quicker responses that are also in English if you need it. I'm not sure why they told you to send it directly there. But I would email them again and ask if you could send it in to the consulate first to get it checked. They'll make sure everything is right before they send it off!
Sounds like my daughter and I , she did all the work. We went the long way about it also as I am not in contact with my 90 year old father. He had taken up Australian citizenship luckily after I was born in 1964 and we had to obtain all relevant documentation to show this. All was worth it so now my 3 children have a German passport or eligibly and also my grandchildren. This opens so many opportunities for them.
Did you submit all of your applications together? Did you need to make a whole set of copies of documentation for each separate application? Or can you send one set in with all of the applications?
Hey, I knew Niko. It never came up. I've known plenty of folks growing up who had duel Citroen ship. Löt of half German friends being military Brat. It would come up over the years. Anyway, you are genious to see the World this way, nephew!
Congrats! Just make sure you get the Einbürgerungsurkunde (in case you haven't done so already). It might be troublesome to renew your Reisepass if you don't have it.
@@Neekss Einbürgerungsurkunde is not needed because you're already a citizen so you don't need to naturalize to Germany, I'm currently trying to get it through my grandparents but my situation is harder because I don't have my grandparent's passports or personalausweis (id card) I think what he means is you might want to apply for a staatsangehörigkeitausweis which is a document that proves citizenship, not a document of naturalization because you're not naturalizing because you're already a citizen. and hello from Australia :)
Awesome! I'm a year older than you & am trying to do the same thing. My situation is slightly more complex than yours though, I also have a german mom but she was born in America & never got her dual citizenship cus my grandparents just didn't know! So it's a back & forth game now to see if she can't still get hers at 60, & then maybe I can get mine through her. Quick question, does that mean you're also paying german taxes even if you're not living there?
I hope you can get it! If she has her parents marriage certificate and it's a German one she should be fine. It could be a little more complex, but the consulate would straighten it out easily. The only time I'd have to pay German taxes would be if I lived there longer than 6 months. Up until that point you're tax free
Hi Druid, I have the same situation as you - mom born to German parents, but in the US. Wondering if you found it possible to get your dual citizenship? Any update?
It doesn‘t matter where you were born. You are German by blood. If you can show birth/marriage certificates it might be no problem. Asked the german embassy. And you don‘t have to pay taxes, if you currently living outside Germany.
@bpb714 Hey! So it took another few months to gather everything we needed but my mom & I are going to the consulate TOMORROW! I'll give an update once the meeting is concluded. Wish us luck!
Thanks for this video. I was born on a U.S. airbase in Germany to an American father and German mother. In live in America now but want to move my family to Germany in 2-3 years. I have a few questions, if you don’t mind. Did you have to do an application for Citizenship by Ancestry? Do you have to show proficiency in the German language? Also, if you were to go to Germany, would you automatically be considered a citizen since you have the passport or would you have to do anything else? Thanks!
Sorry this is so late! But exactly what Bruno said is 100% correct. You are already considered a citizen. If you just go to a consulate and bring your Mom's birth certificate, parents marriage certificate, etc. You'll be sent your passport right away. Just like me, you won't need to do any sort of ancestry application and you don't need to speak the language. You will be considered a citizen, but if you're planning on living there for 2-3 years you'll need to talk to someone once you're in Germany to get into their tax system etc. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have anymore questions :)
No worries. Thanks for your response! Yeah, I’ve done quite a bit more research and it seems like it would be a pretty straightforward process. I think I was over complicating it at the beginning. I have an appointment at our consulate next month :)
Was born in 1958 Augsburg, mother is German and father was US. Left when I was 2 years old and currently am a Naturalized US Citizen. Is it possible to obtain Dual US-German citizenship ?
Sorry this is late, but I'm pretty sure you can! I know there is different rules if you were born before a certain date. But for the most part if you were born to a German mother you should be able too. Just go to the consulate & ask :)
Quick question, did you have to have any of your documents translated into German and did you bring the original documents (birth/marriage certificates, mom's green card, etc.) into your appointment? I'm looking into doing this for Lithuania and of course the processes are different, but just curious about these factors for you. Thanks!
I did fill out my documents in German. However, I think they might (don't reference me on that lol) have one in English. If they do not, then you'll have to just google translate / deepl translate the whole thing haha. But yes, I brought certified copies of my mothers green card, license, birth certificate, and marriage certificate. The processes are different in every country though but some of them should stand :)
wow you are lucky i need help going about it my dad was German he passed away but I've tried to write to the embassy and they just brushed me off they did the same to my young brother the worst part is i even have a German name and I'm willing to do blood tests but don't know how to go about it i guess its hard being African
Hey! Welcome to the EU - German citizenship itself is nice but it's your access to the Union that makes this worthwhile... I got this by birth and one gets truly used to the fast lane at the airports and going over borders without any hindrance or effort. 😸 Best regards Raoul G. Kunz
Hey Neeks Pls I always wanted to apply for German citizenship for a past few years But I always had doubt Because my dad is a Nigerian and my Mum was born in Germany to a Nigerian parents who also had German citizenship by neutrality So is there anyway I can apply for German citizenship from my Mother?
100%! If she was born in Germany and attained a German citizenship there you actually should have a pretty easy time getting one. Did she give up her citizenship by any chance?

If you were born before 2000, you can still get it. I would go back and ask them again. If you were born 2000 or after and recently turned 21, then you are correct. It is not possible.

I definitely had to stop watching at 2:30 right after you said you have a German mother. Congrats, but this video is not relevant for me, despite being a Canadian living in Germany for over a decade, being fluent in the language and professionally working in it, paying my taxes, being a law-abiding legal resident, etc. I thought this was going to be about changes in the German citizenship law.
I'm sorry about that. The video was definitely more of a personal journey rather than a tutorial. I hope you're able to get one sometime soon. The system can be so screwed up sometimes 😭
My daughter got has same day, i walked and walked out with my childs Germans citizenship. Well it helped that my Ex who happens to be a German went with me. And same day. Same moment my toddler got it. Be grateful its not easy to get into Germany let allow be a citizenship. Thank Mama
Now do you get the privledge of paying German Taxes? You know as an American, you have to pay US taxes where ever on this world or even on mars that you decide to live.
You only pay taxes if you live in Germany. You are correct, though. You must file in both countries as a dual USA and German citizen and live in Germany. However, you can deduct the German tax from the USA return. I would hire an American CPA for the US Fed and State returns.
@@Sanyu-Tumusiime Hahaha, if your parents are born there then they automatically get a citizenship that can be passed down to their kids regardless of race. Even them pure breeds lmao
@@conzoi5056 Of course you can have an EU passport. You are probably a naturalized citizen or one of your parents came to Europe and naturalized. However, for me I have ZERO connection to Europe. I am an American and all my ancestors came from Africa. NONE of my ancestors ever stepped foot to Europe. I, myself, have never been to Europe either.

Do you have at least one white parent? 🤣
@@Neekss nope, I'm a pure-breed. my ancestors were brought to the promised land as slaves and we never bred with neanderthals like you Europeans.
@@Sanyu-Tumusiime Hahaha, if your parents are born there then they automatically get a citizenship that can be passed down to their kids regardless of race. Even them pure breeds lmao
im black and i have a eu passport what u on g
@@conzoi5056 Of course you can have an EU passport. You are probably a naturalized citizen or one of your parents came to Europe and naturalized.
However, for me I have ZERO connection to Europe. I am an American and all my ancestors came from Africa. NONE of my ancestors ever stepped foot to Europe.
I, myself, have never been to Europe either.
