## FAQ

### How long does citizenship (Einbürgerung) take at the Ausländerbehörde Saarpfalz-Kreis?

There are not enough reports for this application type in Saarpfalz-Kreis yet.

### What can I do if the Ausländerbehörde Saarpfalz-Kreis has not decided after three months?

That is common, and on its own it is not a reason to act. Many offices have large backlogs, and asking for updates rarely speeds things up. If the delay has no sufficient reason, § 75 VwGO allows an action for failure to act (Untätigkeitsklage). An immigration lawyer can tell you whether that applies to you.

### How many foreign residents does the Ausländerbehörde Saarpfalz-Kreis serve?

About 17,500 people, 12.3% of the population (2024 share of foreign nationals, Federal and State Statistical Offices).
