Filling out Anlage EER for citizenship by descent

I haven't received word about my application yet but what I did - I indicated on the form that there was an appendix page and I labeled it.  There were a couple of areas on my application that required additional paperwork and I just added it to the back of each form packet.

I submitted my paperwork last September 2022.  Hope to hear back soon!

Good luck!

This sounds like a logical strategy from bbujkovsky. I am not saying it is wrong. But German bureaucracy is notorious for expecting people to do things in a particular way. Doing something otherwise will not always mean that they will inform you of the problem. Often they wait indefinitely until they receive the documents they expect and require it done how they want. Thus it can be a mistake to make such assumptions. Really best to contact them directly and ask! Telling them that someone on an online forum said something was acceptable is meaningless to them. And it is not like a case gets processed except for that last missing document. They do nothing until EVERYTHING is properly submitted.

When I naturalized I of course had to take the citizenship and German tests. I forget which one it was but for one of them I was told that the document would also be sent directly to the immigration office. I assumed this was a logical way to avoid fraud. Thus I didn’t sent in my copy of the certificate. After I hadn’t heard anything for almost a year after all my documents were supposedly in; I contacted the office to ask. Then I was told they needed me to bring in the document in question and only then would processing start. I had lost almost a year for nothing because I was trying to be patient and wait. Lesson learned is to double check. Get confirmation all documents are submitted and how they expect them. Don’t constantly harass officials but following up rather than waiting patiently can be important.
