@Derek i will advice u though I am not expert but i think i have idea. Any crime committed in any country in europe is always in that country System, even if u come after 20 years again to that country , your criminal case is still in their system... having 10 years resident italian permit won't allow u to work here, except u have italian pass.. I know of some guys then that came with italian document, they didn't allow them to work with it, rather they seek asyl and their italian document was taken from them... for ur case, u have committed crime and getting document here in germany is difficult for those that have committed crime ... I don't think its possible to get document in germany when u commit bad crime like fraud ... when u come, they will sentence u bro... Germany don't joke with fraud...
