Resident Registration Form, Munich, Germany, 20th November 1990

 Resident Registration Form, Munich, Germany, 20th November 1990
Back of form

Commentary, 4th January 2012: I'm not positive, but I think this form is the form I had to fill out to de-register as a resident... either that or I had to re-register as a resident again... my German fails almost as much as my memory.

Application for a Work Permit (Extension), Munich, Germany, 2nd November 1990

Application for a Work Permit (Extension), Munich, Germany, 2nd November 1990

Back side


4th January 2012: So I liked Germany so much, and was enjoying my work as a cleaning lady at a hospital so much, that I requested an extension of my work visa.  Okay, truthfully, the money was good and really needed for my further travels - the Deutschmark had risen quite a bit in value against the dollar, in reaction to Iraq invading Kuwait in August, 1990, so my DMs went a lot farther than my dwindling supply of US dollars.  So I went to the local authorities and requested my student work permit be extended for another three months.  This was met with some resistance, as they couldn't understand why I wanted to work when I should be attending classes - it was the Fall term, after all! To be honest, I'm still not entirely sure how I convinced them to extend my work permit, but the new company I was working for (Die Münchner Heinzelmännchen) did some magic and got me approved.
