Settlement permit while holding a temporary contract (6 months)
Hi,
I'm holding a researcher permit (§18d). After the 3-year contract ends, my supervisor will extend my contract for six months. The new law requires only three years of holding §18d residence permit (https://www.make-it-in-germany.com/en/visa-residence/living-permanently…) to be eligible for a settlement permit. My questions are:
1/ Can I apply for the settlement permit when the current permit with a 3-year contract expires and prove that I'm still being employed with the extended 6-month contract?
2/ If I get rejected, can I still apply for a job seeker visa, which is a benefit of holding §18d permit after the contract ends?
Thanks!
