![]() I kid you not, he sat there for 25 minutes looking trying to find the afspraak number on the computer, and finally he said “sorry, I can’t find it. When my number was called, I sat down and made to hand my paperwork over to the agent however, he said he was just there to see if he could find my afspraak number in the system. I was given a number to wait for an available agent. But I figured they had my name, my BSN, and all my other vital information, so surely the appointment could be found in the system. When I made the appointment, I had written the afspraak number somewhere on the growing pile of paperwork I had, but for some reason I could not find it when I arrived at the IND welcome desk. I had all the paperwork they needed - what could go wrong?Īfter a few days, I got the required paperwork from our accountant and made an appointment for 3 weeks later with the IND. I would need to make another appointment to come back and submit those before I could file for residency. The agent with whom we met was friendly, but after looking over the papers we had carefully completed, she said we needed more paperwork from our accountant showing both our incomes from our business for the previous 3 years.

For example, you are asking for residency to stay with your partner, you are coming to start a business, etc. I knew that when you call to make the appointment you will need to tell the medewerker under exactly which provision you are applying. So, after my previous failed attempts at applying for Dutch citizenship, I got on the phone yet again - this time to make an afspraak with Immigration and Naturalization (the IND). I am here for the duration, assuming the Netherlands doesn’t fall further into the sea and that the Dutch authorities eventually decide I am worthy of citizenship. Don’t even get me started on the joys of oliebollen. I have grown to love stamppot, raw herring, and mayonnaise on my frites. Although nothing is written in stone, I do not ever intend to return to my country of origin. It was only recently that I came to the realization that, in fact, I am not an expat I am an immigrant. Here are: part 1, part 2 and part 3 for you to catch up on. The feeling of love.” - Killscreendaily.The road to Dutch citizenship is indeed a long one. ![]() playing it means feeling love, not love for the designers or the medium or the state of being meaningfully distracted or the sense of communion with everyone who does this or even the game itself, but love. if you like high scoring games or touching works of art, then you won’t want to miss Bumpy Road ”. ”While Bumpy Road is indeed a solid high scoring game, it’s the peripheral elements that transcend it from being merely a well-made video game to an unforgettable experience.
