Hello Dear Friends,
Greetings!
I have applied for NE in
Ausländerbehörde Bonn on last January 23rd 2007. The lady in charge said that i fulfil all the conditions and am eligible for NE.

She further said that the whole processing including the Security Checks might take around 4-to-6 weeks.
I also requested her that i would also like to apply for "Daueraufenthalt-EG" (since i am in Germany since July 2001), but she said D-EG is only for the Europeans!! I tried to convince her alot that D-EG is for foreigners as well and anyone can have this if a person fulfils: (1.) all the conditions for NE (only to get NE) and (2.) 60 months paid Rentenversicherungen (to get NE and D-EG), but she was not at all convinced!! May be next time i will go with some printouts stating about granting D-EG to foreigners.
By-the-way, do someone has idea what do they normally check in the security checks for NE
(or for D-EG)? Do someone has personal experience (
exclusively in Bonn) how much *real* time does it takes to finally get or to process NE?
Thanx in advance.
Cheers! Jeetesh.
