About Asylum applications of Afghan nationals

Question

Dear Wefugees group members,

I am an Afghan citizen in Germany, I have submitted my asylum application  in July 2021 but still did not receive any reply from BAMF.

I searched online but it says that currently BAMF is not processing (making decisions) on asylum applications of Afghan nationals, as they are waiting for reports about current situation of Afghanistan from Federal foreign office and European Asylum Support Office.

Could you please give us some information when these reports will be publish and BAMF will start making decisions on asylum applications of Afghan nationals.

Thanks.

Dear @khanbaba,

Welcome to the Wefugees Community and thank you for reaching out to us.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any other information than you already had as well. Are you following the "Handbook Germany" website? They are publishing updated news on the Afghanistan situation - you can also switch the language to Farsi (click the globe in the upper right corner). Although the Federal Foreign Office published a respective report a few days ago, this report has, according to the government, no influence on ongoing asylum procedures (as I read also here). Instead, they are waiting for a report by the EASO (European Asylum Office). In the meantime, I would highly recommend you to stay updated through the above mentioned website or the one of the Refugee Council in Lower Saxony, for instance.

I wish you all the best and please don't hesitate to get back to us with any further questions.

Dear @Khanbaba,

I would like to add to what my colleague has written to you. Based on the recent information from the ''Informationsverband Asyl & Migration'', the report from the EASO (European Asylum Support Office) has also been published on 11.11.2021.

You can read about it more in German under the following link:

And here is the link for the report of the EASO about Afghanistan:
