Wait with the building application because of the child construction allowance

One should not forget the registration confirmation. So, that one has to pass around not only the apartments but also something else (namely oneself).

Why should one have to re-register oneself? Do you mean when applying for the existing property? If it is a different property, then it doesn't matter...

Yes; for the existing one.

According to recent newspaper reports, including in the FAZ, the Baukindergeld could already run out next year, although the numbers are sometimes mixed up. As far as I remember, a total of 2 billion was allocated for the funding period until the end of 2020, half of which has already been used up after one year. If no additional funds are provided, then with a constant number of applications, it will be over after 2019, and first come, first served. Therefore, all builders planning for next year should consider submitting their applications as early as possible. A registration certificate is a prerequisite for everyone. To what extent this will already be issued by the residents' registration office before the final acceptance by the building authority ([Datenaustausch]) is carried out, I do not know...

Thank you for the info. But it was obvious, right?

For us, the move-in will be in summer 2019, that should just about be in time.

Besides, 2018 is a bit special since 1. it is possible retroactively and 2. it can be applied for additionally until the end of Feb 2019.

No, everything should also be fine with you in the normal way. That's why I deliberately did not count on the weekly applications, because that distorts the picture. But the number of applications for 2018 itself should already be comparable to 2019.

But those are just submitted applications for now, not all of them will be approved, right?

We are building massively in March 2019 and might be able to move in by Christmas 2019 if everything goes smoothly..

What kind of proofs do they want at the registration office? Basically, from when at the earliest can I re-register?

Best regards
