Another round of Ausländeramt

Monday, November 30th, 2009

Time flies when you’re having fun.

In Feb 2010, I’m due for another trip to the Ausländeramt to have my Aufenthaltstitel and Arbeitserlaubnis extended. At the moment, everything looks rosey. I’ve been steadily increasing my income since the last time I visited, paying tax, the whole thing, so I shouldn’t have any problems. I’ll let you know what documents I prepare to take along when I go so that you can prepare a similar package.

I’m baaaack

Hello fellow struggling new Berliners; how goes it? I know I haven’t blogged in ages, but it’s only because I’ve had so much to do. I gave notice at the software company I was working at to work independently full-time, and now it is hectic. When it rains, it pours, and even when it doesn’t rain it’s still wet. At the moment, I’m trying to save capital to form my own company (a meagre translation agency), but I assure you that I’ll keep you informed along the way.

What else is new? Well I pay lot more taxes, and I have a lot more overhead now that I have to pay partners, but I guess that was bound to happen… I shall return with news!
