As what I have said last Tuesday, I am now a German citizen. Yesterday, I processed my passport and regular processing usually takes 3-4 weeks. Beginning November 01, 2007, all Germans who want to apply for a passport will already be taken of their fingerprints and a biometrix photo. The new passport will already have a chip which contains all the owner's characteristics or data. This is especially needed when travelling or going out of the country. A special laser machine will scan the chip easily and will see all your data in it. The authorities said that this is for security and control purposes.
In Germany, you can apply for a German citizenship for varied reasons. Since I am married to a German, I have the right for a German citizenship. This is one of the reasons, by Marriage. Other reasons are; children born in Germany by non-German parents (by birth), by legitimation and simply for applying it.
In my case, I need to have 3 years residence in Germany before I can apply for it. One of the requirements is attending the German Integration course. I guess, I already mentioned this in my early blogs. In this course, one will learn the German language, German history and culture and some basic laws. After the course, you need to take two exams, one for German language and the other for Germany's history and culture. If you pass the exam, you will received then four certificates which is then needed for the application of German citizenship.
I am just really happy now, since I already have all the rights and privileges being a German citizen. One advantage is travelling anywhere without need for visa. Another reason is that, I already have a freedom of movement in EU especially maybe working in other EU countries without need of a working visa.
I am hoping that next year will be a better year for me and for all of us.
