    This is so great and I know quite a few people who would benefit from this service - I will be sharing far and wide! Thank you for this ✨ I have had experience with an immigration lawyer in Berlin and it was amazing. She was brilliant at making sure I understood all the processes; made sure I had all paperwork in the right order and state as well as ensuring I had an appointment in good time. I always recommend her to friends ❤️

    This hits home. I applied for German citizenship in 2022, finally got it in 2023—and even with all the privilege of stability and resources, the process was brutal. So much waiting, so much paperwork, and so many moments of ‘Did I mess this up?’ I love what you’re building with Drift. No one should have to go through immigration feeling lost, frustrated, or alone. Making the process accessible? That’s a game-changer. Cheering you on! 👏👏👏👏👏
