)
3. Any financial assistance for the move to Cologne.
4. Any good ideas to make it work? (I know this may open up the discussion to the Jokesters but please I’m kind of serious)
1. CGN is 3500 housing....must live within 100 miles and must be in same country.
2. 5K per child capped at 10K total per year
3. 10K seed money to get you started...plus other perks ...realtor fee, deposit, household goods packing, storage and shipping.
4. Talk to some folks already doing it....FDA is a love it or hate it deal...its up to you to make the best of the situation.
Hope that helps you make a decision!
