Hello,
I have been working as a Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter for the last 5 years. My contract is now going to end and I started applying for jobs in industries. Some companies asked me about my Arbeitserlaubnis status.
I already fullfill the condition of 36 months of paying Rente while working as a Wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter in university.
I have question
If I get some offer from some company; ABH will send my case for Arbeitsmarktprüfung?
Should ABH directly issue me visa withour Arbeitsmarktprüfung ?
Regards
Raul

Hola Raul

Well, if you are already 5 yrs working here you should have NE or permanent work permit. If you didn´t do it maybe you can start the process now.

So, first of all: do you have a company name stamped in your Passport? If no then you can change your job. Endpoint. No more needs AFAIK.

But if you have a "standart" GC work permit, with company name on it, theorically they won´t need to make an Abeitsmarktcheck BUT they like to do that.

In my personal case when I decided to change my job it was already +3 yrs working/paying Rente in Germany. I asked AA/ABH and they told me I needed AGAIN an Arbeitsmarktcheck (that is not really that problematic but takes time!).

So what I did (thanks to advices of guys of this forum (aka DVD, Lacrima u.s.w) first I asked for the removal of the company name in my pass based on 3+ years in D and then I changed my job unproblematically.

So, think based on your visa and the you can decide!
