no documents and gray pass

Hi @User.34 , thank you for your inquiry. These answers are provisional, as we do not know your exact situation and cannot give legal advice. If you are currently an asylum seeker and have no identity documents, you must prove to the immigration office that you are unable to obtain these documents ("Mitwirkungspflicht" (duty to cooperate)). For example, if you have a document from the authorities in Pakistan stating that they will not issue you a passport, you can have the document translated into English or German and submit it to the immigration office. A deportation cannot usually be realised without identity documents. However, there are exceptions, for example, if Germany has concluded a specific agreement with the destination country. In general, not having identity documents constitutes an obstacle to deportation. In such cases, the immigration office usually issues a tolerated stay according to §60a (Residence Act). Note: If you do not fulfil your obligation to cooperate in obtaining passport documents, this can lead to a ‘tolerated stay for people with an unclear identity’. This means you are not allowed to work and have a number of restrictions. The grey passport is issued to persons who are stateless, entitled to subsidiary protection, or have received a ban on deportation. You must apply for the grey passport at the immigration office. What can you do next?
