Question

Answer 1

You probably also want to know if you are allowed to work. As an EU citizen you are.

They made it pretty easy for europeans to work in any country in the EU.

Here is some more information on that topic:

Answer 6

You have the right to work and live in Germany without a residency permit and without a work permit. As EU citizen you have the same rights as a German citizen except for social welfare (ALG II or Hartz IV money from ARGE or Sozialhilfe from the county or city). As a Brit you cannot get the dole in Germany, only in the UK. You are however entitled to all insurance-based social security systems like health insurance, unemployment benefits and pensions. All you need to do is pay into the system for a certain amount of time. To recieve unemployment benefits (ALG I ) you need to work for a year, for pensions at least 5 years.

Another way to get unemplyoment benefits in Germany is as a transfer service from the UK for 3 months. This is a service done EU-wide to help EU citizen to move to other countries.

Transfer service of unemployment benefits from the UK works the following way: If you are recieving money from DPW http://www.dwp.gov.uk/ you can apply for a transfer of this money to seek work in Germany. Once your papers are processed by DWP you will then be eligible to recieve unemployment benefits for 3 months from the German Arbeitsagentur while you are looking for work in Germany. Talk to your clerk at DWP about it.

Hope this helped a bit.
