Which place to enter?

The location is used to determine the responsible office for the selected administrative service. In most cases you can enter your place of residence to find the competent authority. However, there are also cases in which a different location must be specified. Here are some examples:

Birth certificateYou want to get married and need a birth certificate. You live in Hanover, but you were born in Celle. You must therefore state your place of birth, i.e. Celle.

Business registrationYou would like to register a business in Braunschweig. Your place of residence is Hanover. You must therefore state the location of your future business, i.e. Braunschweig.

Apply for a building permitYou would like to build a house in Wunstorf and therefore apply for a building permit. Her place of residence is currently Hanover. You must indicate the place where the house is to be built. In this case it is Wunstorf.

Apply for an integration grant from the job center


An integration subsidy can be paid if the employee you wish to hire is not yet able to perform the full workload at the start of employment. For example, because the person does not yet have the necessary professional experience and knowledge required for the job and the induction period therefore takes longer than usual. However, a normal induction period cannot be funded.

The amount and duration of support depend on the individual case. Standard funding is limited to a maximum of 12 months and 50 percent of the salary. Longer or higher funding is possible for certain groups of people (e.g. older or disabled people).

The integration subsidy is paid monthly in arrears as a subsidy towards wage costs. This is generally based on the wages you actually pay. Your share of the total social insurance contribution is taken into account as a lump sum.

The integration subsidy is only paid if it is necessary for the professional integration of the person. You do not have a legal entitlement to a subsidy.

Funding is excluded if you terminate an existing employment relationship in order to receive an integration grant. Funding is also not possible if you wish to employ someone who has been employed by you for more than 3 months in the last 4 years and was subject to compulsory insurance.
