Frequently Asked Questions
FROM READING TO PREPARATION
Already a first answer.
Where do I start if I become independent for the first time?
Start with what will change soon: your home, work, income or family situation. Open the related guide and use the checklist to make a list of what is arranged and what still needs an answer.
Must I arrange everything at once?
First distinguish between arrangements with a date and issues you still want to investigate. Keep contracts and confirmations together. Ask the relevant service which information they need and note the next step.
Can I involve a parent or trusted person?
You can review the information together and prepare your questions. Indicate who you want to involve in a conversation. It helps if you formulate in advance what you want to achieve and what you have doubts about.
