Re: Citizenship Application 2021






At the time of application, i still had one year validity of my RP. I got the PR 6 months before the expiry of my RP. The permit has to be valid throughout the time while citizenship application is in process. otherwise the processing is stopped until the permit is renewed.

For everyone’s information, if you are below 30, you have to do the army duty or civil service unless you have a medical report which says you are incapable of doing army duty. I am below 30 and army already contacted me :D . I am planning to do civil service (347 days). Wish me luck!

Re: Citizenship Application 2021






Partners avoid being liable for gift tax through joint accounts and the daily expenses exception.


I checked that too. It says that the joint account money has to be used both parts benefit. So if one of the partner withdraw some and use for its own benefit, then gift tax comes.

Re: Citizenship Application 2021



What is even more absurd, it doesn’t matter if you are family or not, if you get an amount of 5000 € total in 3 years, you have to pay gift tax. Which makes it clear that both partners have to have their own income or they have to pay tax for something that is a family sharing.

Re: Citizenship Application 2021



Their questions were weird. Like “you got this much money transfer from your spouse, did you pay the gift tax on that money?” It shocked me lol. The amount is not high btw.


Tax debt can be a reason to deny the application.


Can be but I had no idea about this absurd “gift tax” which is ...
