Hi,
Thanks for the information.

Has anybody taken part into this program?

I am also leaving Germany and would like to take part into this program.

http://www.zav-reintegration.de/index.htm
I have recently requested the forms of it from the above mentioned web site. There are certain clauses that one can get the money for flight ticket and transportation cost. I would like to know under which circumstances one can get the money for this.

If anybody has more information about it, please share the information.

Hi
Pay attention to the term "Entwicklungsland" (Developing country).This term indicates the countries which have an annual average income under 745 US$ per capita.
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entwicklungsland

So the countries from Eastern Europe and South America do not fall under this category and people from those countries can not claim these benefits.

Most of the GClers are from so called "Schwellenland"
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwellenland
which are categorized between developing countries and already industrialized countries.

FYI

Thanks Lacrima for the information.

http://www.de-orient.com/content/view/27/1/ has information on this issue in english (not official).

Following are the partner countries for Reintegration program:
Afghanistan, Jordanien, Ägypten, Kamerun, Äthiopien, Kolumbien, Bolivien, Marokko, Brasilien, Mongolei, Chile, Pakistan, China, Palästina/Israel*, Georgien, Peru, Ghana, Syrien, Indien, Tunesien, Indonesien, Türkei, Vietnam.

Hi sweetyb
Thanks for the list. The last time I visited the ZAV page, there was no such a list of countries. They were only talking about "Developing Countries" which is actually an unclear definition. This list which seems to be valid after 1.1.2007
http://www.zav-reintegration.de/Internationale_Vermittlung_D.htm

is more enlightening in terms of which countries are eligible and which are not.

Regards,

Lacrima
