    If you haven’t already, try bringing a German with you to the ausländerbehörde. It’s wild how much politer and more attentive they are

      That is a gute Idee.

      I’ll make a note and see if I can convince someone to tag along for our appointment.

        I’m tall, blue eyed, fluent in German, and I married a German, so racists always consider me “one of the good ones”(until they actually talk to me). It was still absolutely night and day to go with my husband. It’s probably worth buying a friend lunch.
