German government statistics show that more than 600,000 refugees seeking asylum have failed to make a formal application to remain in country and the government doesn't know where they are.
Slow processing of asylum applications may account for some of the missing. And there's a good chance that many refugees have left Germany for other European countries.
Another possible explanation is that some refugees have applied many times, looking to get sent to the city of their choice.
Daily Mail:
The system, operated by the German Ministry For Migration And Refugees, aims to provide urgent first assistance to new arrivals by spreading them around the country based on a quota system.
Once the applicant's county of origin has been taken, officials assign the refugee a place where they are to be cared for, and where they can then make an application for asylum.
It is the responsibility of the location and state where they are assigned to care for them, and provide accommodation.
North Rhine Westphalia, which includes Cologne, takes far more of the immigrants than any other part of Germany with 21 per cent, whereas Bremen takes the least with less than 1 per cent. In the capital Berlin it is just over 5 per cent.
The asylum seeker is then expected to make their application for asylum once they arrive at the end state destination.
But of those refugees, only 476,649 - 326,529 men and 150,120 women - have so far gone through with the process and registered for asylum.
That means more than 600,000 are unaccounted for.
According to Dr Neymanns, the main objective of EASY is to provide the basics that refugees from a war-torn country would need, namely a roof over their head and food.
He said: 'It is entirely possible that if somebody doesn't like where they are being sent, that they simply re-apply again later in order to get sent somewhere else.
'Many prefer to be in the big cities, and it might also be that they want to be sent somewhere they know they have contacts or relatives.'
He said that delays in the processing of applications meant that there may be many people in asylum seeker centres who had not been able to make their application yet because of the backlog, and therefore it was difficult to know an exact figure for how many of the 600,000 were still in Germany but not yet registered.
Most of this appears to be bureaucratic red tape gone amok. But of particular concern to the entire continent should be that unknown number of refugees who hit the road after making it to Germany in order to settle somewhere else.
They're not all terrorists -- but some could be. The problem here is the cavalier manner in which the German government approaches their own security and the security of their neighbors. It's one of the befuddling issues about this entire crisis that when inviting people to enter your country from regions of the world where terrorism is rampant, it's more important to appear tolerant and welcoming than it is to take adequate measures to protect the citizenry.
Not to worry. I saw the down at the public swimming pool soiling the pools and hot tubs.
Invasion by another name.
Europe lost its balls to PC leftism.
and this is an example of German efficiency!
326,529 men and 150,120 women - have so far gone through with the process and registered for asylum...
i NEVER remember a refugee group made up 2 to 1 of men.
they are not going there to build a better life like the Europeans who came to the US.
it’s an invasion. with open arms.
Might as well rename it Germanistan now.
Gadzooks-- Could that be the same... 
600,000 we cannot find?
The 2016 Republican Presidential Ticket:
Yeah, as if it’s a mystery, eh? They are in Germany. Duh.
“They’re not all terrorists — but some could be.”
That’s a complete lie. Every Muslim is a terrorist by definition of what is commanded of a Muslim by Allah. If they are a good Muzzie they have to terrorize the infidel or at least quietly support those who actively are doing it with money or other means.
About 16% of the 1.6 billion Muzzies are physically engaged in jihad. The other 84% quietly support it.
No Muslims, no terrorists!
Just sayin'.....
Another possible explanation is that some refugees have applied many times, looking to get sent to the city of their choice.
**********************
Getting welfare times 10 and setting up apartments in multiple cities to operate out of,, just take the bus walk to the mailbox and collect $$$$ , more money=more jihad ...
They can’t bring a couple of former Stasi agents out of retirement?
And the US has over 500,000 visa overstays a year.
And no one has the slightest idea where they are.
Invasion by another name.
Europe lost its balls to PC leftism.
There will be no Political Correctness for the Europeans when they are living and dying under Sharia Law.
The joke isn’t so much the 600K refugees they have no handle on. The joke is they think they know anything about the other 400K+ that filed paperwork. The first group they know is a potential problem. The second group they have this insane feeling of safety regarding. Ha! They basically have over a million potential terrorists in country. Even if you accept the unsubstantiated notion that *only* a percentage or two of Muslims are violent extremists or support such activities. (all evidence to the contrarty) That still means 10,000 to 30,000 terrorists and/or supporters are now in-country. Nice job Germany.
Yeah, as if it’s a mystery, eh? They are in Germany. Duh.
I am sure they could if they wanted to!
