Got transfered to Iserlohn and found a job - Do I still have to wait 3 months before moving?

Question

i applied for asylum through hessen and submited my aunts ausweis etc. They transfered me to another American Camp and after few days said we are full and transfered me to bonn for 3 Weeks after i was sent to Euskirchen and stayed their about 5 months and 3 weeks and now i got transfered to Iserlohn. I already spoke to Diakonie and they said i cant transfer anywhere at moment even if i found a job and have to stay here minimum 3 months so is this information valid or not since i would really like to transfer to frankfurt where i orig applied from or to Kol

Hello Riz,

thank you for asking this question in our Forum.

There two different situation, where the state can legally bind you to a town/city:

1. Residenzpflicht= this is the case if your asylum case hasnt been decided yet upon. In this case even if you get a job- you will ot be able to apply for a transfer.

2. Wohnsitzauflage= This is the case if your Case has been decided upon. In this Case, depending on your status granted there are different ways to move to another city, but mainly when you do not financial support by the state.

So taking into account the Informations you have given:

You might be able to apply once your case has been decided upon to move to town where you have family(your aunt), I would suggest in this case to get some legal help in order to get it through.

I hope I could help here.

Hello Riz,
sounds good that there is already a court appointment in place. In a usual case the courts decide within 6 months( but it always differs from  case to case).
As for the best job options:
- please try : https://***.jobs4refugees.org/
- I also found this in Iserlohn:
https://fluechtlingsnetzwerk.de/s_Koordinierungsteam.html

There must be some free Language classes:
- The AWO offers consultation in Iserlohn on this:

Good luck!
