“I had heard many times that MA35 is like a branch of hell. But with MyPaperwork, I honestly didn't feel that at all. They helped me collect and translate all the documents, organize everything properly, and even accompanied me to the MA35 office. I'm very grateful for their support and truly satisfied with the experience.”

“At the end of November 2025, with the help of mypaperwork, I submitted documents for an RWR+ card in Vienna. And today, January 16, 2026, I already received my RWR+ card for 3 years. I want to sincerely thank Benjamin and his team. With their help, preparing the documents and visiting the magistrate was incredibly easy and stress-free. Their accompaniment to the magistrate was very important, especially when visiting such an important institution for the first time. I am very satisfied with their work and how everything is thoughtfully organized. Many sincere thanks!!!”
