Hello
I hope some one can give their advice
I am working in an International school as an Assistant teacher for the last four years and currently I hold Daueraufenthalt EG. I like to take one year off and do a teacher training course in India. The course is about twelve months long. My question is
Is there any possibility at all to get the Arbeitlosgeld in India when I attend the teacher training course while taking leave without pay from the school or do I need to resign from my job to get the Arbeitlosgeld in India while doing my teacher training course or it is not possible to get any Arbeitlosgeld in India
Can I stay in India for one year with my current status Daueraufenthalt EG or do I need to return back within six months to maintain my visa status. Thanks

Arbeitlosgeld in India is not possible. After 12 month Daueraufenthalt EG expires.

Thanks for your reply
Do you or anyone in Forum know, if it is possible to postpone the Arbeitlosgeld by few months while I will be in India? Suppose after finishing my teacher training in eleven months if I come back to Germany, can I still claim the Arbeitlosgeld for one year while searching for new job?
One more thing, I am living in Germany for now nine years, can I apply for German citizenship in India, if yes where can I take the German B1 language and Integration test and where to submit my application in India
Best Regards

Can anyone please reply to this post and share their experiences if any
Thanks
