Visa Questions

Requirements for Aufenthaltserlaubnis

Toggle
Hello all,
I have been living in Germany since Oct.2002 and I am having the visa of "Aufenthaltsbewilligung". Now, I have got a job position in a German research company (Fraunhofer Institut), and in the meanwhile I am registered as a PhD student in the university. This job offer is half scientist position (BAT IIa/2). My question is how to get "Aufenthaltserlaubnis" and what documents should I present to AusländerBehörde for this purpose?
My second question is ... while having this half scientist position in a German company, can I apply for the permanent residence according to the new German immigration laws?

Prompt help would be highly appreciated.
Rgrds.

according to my opinion you will be given AE according to §17 of AufG as you are already registered as a PhD. That time might not be counted for PR.

I see mk knows a lot.
Are you allready PhD. There is something you should know. After finishing studium in De you have right to 1 year jobsearch visa.
BUT ...
if you take another student-scientist job, then you do not have normal AE which is necessery for NE or citizenship.

To get NE or citizenship you MUST find normal job with normal AE.
When you get it you can get NE if you have 5 years in D (student time not counted),
but you will probably get citizenship much sooner allthough for CS you need 7 years because for cs, student time is counted so for cs you have allrady 3 years and if this job is 3 years then it is 6. After it get a job, normal AE and you will get cs which is better than NE after 1 year.

I thank you very much mk and DvD for your prompt replies. What my point was, that WHAT documents do I need to present to Ausländerbehörde?

I was told by a friend that I have to present a letter from the company that the work being done here is for the "public interest" and not for the "company's own interest". Is it right?

By the way, I am having 3+ years of software research and development experience and finished my M.Sc in Computer Science last year and started my Ph.D two months ago. Am I highly skilled person who is eligible for the PR? :-)

to be HQ one has to:
1 - get 84k or
2 - be in very very important leading position or
3 - be in very very important research position.


So as you see it is very very important that you are very very something to be HQ.
If you are only very it is not enough.

Meaning ABH can allways tell you that you are very smart but you need to be very very smart in order to be HQ.
