Applying for an extension of the residence permit to look for a job for skilled workers with an academic education

Description

Description

You have already received a residence permit to look for a job for qualified specialists with an academic qualification. If you have not yet found a job that matches your academic qualifications but would like to continue looking for a job, you can apply for an extension of your residence permit.

Please note that the residence permit is issued for a maximum of six months. An extension of your residence permit is only possible if this 6-month period has not yet been exhausted. The extension must be applied for in good time before your previous residence permit expires.

If you have already been in possession of a six-month residence permit, the residence permit can only be issued again if you have stayed abroad after your departure for at least as long as you previously stayed in Germany to look for a job.

The residence permit will be issued again for a limited period, but for no longer than six months in total.
