Hi,

we are currently planning our house construction (hopefully starting in July or August) and have a small issue. Our child will start school this September, but unfortunately not at our future residence, rather 30 km (18.6 miles) away at our current address. We would like to avoid this and, if possible, have the child enrolled at the future residence right away. Applications regarding this have so far been unsuccessful and were all rejected.

Assuming we start construction in July or August, from when would it be possible to change the official address?

According to the law, the house must be habitable, which, according to the Bavarian building regulations, means:
“A building may only be used when it itself, access roads, water supply and wastewater disposal, as well as communal facilities, are safely usable to the necessary extent, but not before the time specified in sentence 1.”

However, inquiries with the residents’ registration office showed that they are not very strict about this (they basically said we should just proceed, as no one checks this closely, especially since it’s just a matter of a few months).

What are your experiences? How have you handled this? Feel free to PM.

Do you have relatives in your building location?

Well, my grandmother lives about 5 km (3 miles) away from the building site. We included this information in the guest school application, but it didn’t help.

Then why not just register the kid with Grandma?!

How is that supposed to work practically with the 30km (19 miles)? Drive 120km (75 miles) every day?

First, acquire a mailbox and then create a mailbox family.

Yes, Panama Papers would then be my suggestion as well—if Putin is allowed to do it, so are you.
