Working with the Fiktionsbescheinigung

Hello, 

 

I have EU-Blaue karte, my wife visa under a family reunion visa. Her short term visa will expire soon, we will request a Fiktionsbescheinigung. Can she legally continue working under the Fiktionsbescheinigung?

As i am aware of she can also travel outside of Germany with the Fiktionsbescheinigung.

 

Appreciate your help and cooperation.

Hello @abood1995 ,  thank you for reaching out. There are many in the forum who have similar questions regarding the Fiktionsbescheinigung.
There are two different types of Fiktionsbescheinigung.
You can find more detailed information about the two different types here: https://service.berlin.de/dienstleistung/326233/en/
Depending on what type of Fiktionsbescheinigung is issued to her she can continue to work and travel.

With a Schengen visa, so short term visa- a Fiktionsbescheinigung usually cannot be issued.
If you wife already has a visa for a long-term residence that allows her to work then she should be issued the Fktionsbescheinigung that allows her to work and travel. Please make sure this is requested when applying for a Fiktionsbescheinigung

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
Best wishes
