Hi,

I am living in Germany as a refugee for 8 years now.

I wondered whether I can apply for citizenship as I have the following issues

1. I have applied for insolvency
2. I am separated from my wife but not yet divorced and we don't plan to get together again. We also don't want to apply for the citizenship as a couple.

I have a job and not dependent on any government benefits.

Best regards.

Dear @ARN,

Welcome back at Wefugees and thank you for reaching out to us again.

If I am correct, the naturalization in the event of personal insolvency is not excluded by law. It is important, however, that you can fincance the living expenses for yourself and your dependent family members. This includes your spouse (I assume even if you are currently seperated, especially since you are not officially divorced yet) and, for example, your children for whom you pay maintenance. I would recommend to contact the naturalization authority directly and get some individual counselling by a lawyer or at a migration counselling office (the latter offers free of charge and confidential services).

Do you agree with my explanations and can you add any inforamtion dear @mbeon-fardeen?

In any case, please also don't hesitate to get back to us with any further questions.

All the best,

Meike
