This platform is built primarily for EU Blue Card holders and other skilled migrants living in Germany who need to pass the Leben in Deutschland test as part of their permanent residency application.
For EU Blue Card holders, the timeline for applying for a permanent settlement permit is typically 27 months. This period is accelerated to 21 months if you can demonstrate B1 German language proficiency. The LiD exam is a mandatory step in this process. By helping you prepare efficiently and pass the LiD exam as early as possible, we help keep your application timeline on the fastest achievable track.
Free apps generally provide only the raw question bank. We provide a structured exam simulator designed to maximize efficiency. In addition, our Automated Appointment Tracker helps reduce delays by notifying you when test appointments become available.
