Germany is a prosperous European state from an economic and social point of view, therefore it is not surprising that many residents of Eastern Europe are planning to leave for permanent residence in Germany if they have such an opportunity.
Since the immigration policy of Germany today is pretty strict, there are not many reasons for immigrants to be able to reside permanently in this state. According to German law, there are only five good reasons for foreigners to legally enter German territory and stay there for a long time. First of all, such a reason is family reunion - when a foreigner comes to Germany to live together with his parents, children or spouse who are citizens of this country. You can also go to Germany for permanent residence if you qualify for one of the categories of specialists who are eligible to participate in the green card program for IT specialists. The fact is that Germany today urgently needs high-class specialists from several high-tech industries - laser, nuclear, and computer. But for this it is necessary to find an employer in Germany in advance, who will accept you for work and will be ready to place a call documented. However, sometimes specialists from other industries can find a suitable job in Germany, for example, if you are a high-class chef of Russian cuisine, your chance to find a job in Germany will be extremely high. Specialists from the field of art and sports are also in demand. If you have enough funds to open your own business in Germany, you can exercise this right and move to this country for permanent residence. Many young people use another way to obtain a residence permit in Germany - they simply go there to take a course at a German university, and after graduation they try to immediately find a job in their specialty. Less often, foreigners move to Germany for humanitarian reasons - for example, in connection with the granting of political asylum. Very often, German authorities refuse to provide political asylum to foreigners if they cannot provide really strong evidence that they are subjected to serious persecution in their homeland. The reason for moving to Germany is often the ethnic origin of foreigners - for example, if they are ethnic Germans or ethnic Jews. From a practical point of view, the most appropriate option for moving to Germany for permanent residence is the conclusion of a labor contract with a German company or admission to one of the German universities.
