Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask for your opinion regarding my mother’s citizenship application process (Einbürgerung).
The application was submitted in May 2024, and we received the AZ number from August 2024.

We recently sent additional documents to the BVA showing that her brother is a German citizen living in Nürnberg. We also attached:

a copy of his German passport,
and extracts from the German Familienbuch / Standesamt documents.

Additionally, he received German citizenship through his mother.
Do you think these additional family documents and proof of close German family ties could help speed up the process or positively influence the case?
Would really appreciate hearing from people with similar experiences.

Thanks a lot!
