Family Reunification

My brother is under the threat

Hi, 
Since I was working with the German organization, I came here under the S22 section due to political change in Afghanistan. I was living in a house where my brother is living. Unfortunately, I did not give his name on the list at the time of evacuation. He is under threat. could you please help me share any contact I should approach? I do not know how I can help him?
Ministry of Internal Affairs is responsible for taking admission then; I can not find any email from them.

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

Hi @Nika unfortunately, the general rule is that you can only bring your immediate family with you. This means your spouse or underage children. This also applies for family reunification. More information on family reunification here: https://handbookgermany.de/de/family-reunification-for-immigrants However, there are some exceptions for example if you can prove a case of hardship. However this is only given in rare cases. I would recommend seeking out advice to see if there are any other possible solutions. What city are you living in? Then I can look for an advice center near you. Best wishes Yara

@Nika , I am sorry that no one replied to you. Unfortunately, at the moment no one can apply for the new program. Here you can find out more information on the new program for Afghans: https://handbookgermany.de/fa/afghanistan-info The information is also available in Pashto.

@Nika hello, I have some new information, so applications are not possible directly to the foreign ministry but should go through an NGO first. I hope this helps. All this information is also in our Afghanistan info page: https://handbookgermany.de/fa/afghanistan-info Best wishes
