Hi everyone,

*** Hi, I try to answer and I hope that someone else will confirm, because I am not 100% sure regarding your family... ***

I just need a small suggestion from experts. I am residing in germany from the last 5years 3 months. I have paid taxes for al these years and I still have contract untill end of 2014 . I have also a residence permit untill the end of 2014. I would like to apply for permanent residence. I have few questions

1) Am I eligible for applying to PR ?  

*** Yes, you are eligible 100% ***


2) My wife is also residing along with me from the last 5 years. My son was also born here and he is 2 years old. Are they eligible for applying to PR along with me. My wife also paid taxes from the last 3.5 years. 

*** I guess she will also get PR, only 75% sure ***


3) Are there different categories of PR ? I heard that one is eleigible for only working in germany and one is for for whole EU. Am I right ?

*** Yes, this is true. When you apply for PR you have to tell the officers that you will apply for PR - EU, that's it. 75% sure ***


4) What about blue card ? Is it a good option form for me as I have a residence permit untill the end of 2014 ?

*** Blue Crad is not important for you. Your status is already perfect 100% sure ***


I request you please suggest me and reply to my questions. Thanks in advance

** Good luck **
Detlef
