Naturalization Despite the job center - How to get a German passport!

Naturalization despite the job center. Is that possible? As a general rule, Naturalization requires you to cover your living expenses from your own resources. If you receive money from the Jobcenter, you do not in principle meet this requirement.

However, there are also a few exceptions to how you can become German despite support from the Jobcenter and which Naturalization works despite the Jobcenter.

The decisive factor is that you are not responsible for the fact that you receive money from the Jobcenter. However, the requirement for this is very strict. Examples of this could be repeated illness through no fault of your own or unemployment due to coronavirus.

It is important to have as much evidence of the situation as possible. The more evidence and proof you can provide that you are receiving money from the Jobcenter through no fault of your own, the better.

However, the simplest and best solution for Naturalization is still not to receive any money from the Jobcenter and to be in employment. This also makes it easier for you to provide proof that you are able to support yourself.
