Not German myself, but I have German friends who have successfully obtained German approval to proceed with applying for Australian citizenship (German by birth and descent, Australian by conferral/naturalisation after years of permanent residency). I'm not aware of the specifics of the process, other than that it took many many months of paperwork.
