Spouse work permit!!
Hi,
I am a GC -holder since 3 years. I married last year and my wife joined me 1 year back. She got a job offer from a IT company, but salary is not so high that she could get a GreenCard. Is there any way that she can get a normal work permit.
As I understood, after one year she can apply for any normal job. So how people get work permit in that case.
Any help !!
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Rajnish

Hi,
Yes, but she finished studies now.
In new, coming low I think there is a way to stay one year after finishing studies to search for a job.
But, the low starts from January 2005, and her visa expires in a month.
So, we better get merried before her visa expires...
Thank you,
Vladimir

Hi Rajnish,
The law is that your wife can get a unlimited work permit because you are a greencard Holder. I know a wife of a GC Holder who has got unlimited work permit eventhough she is working for less than 400 € basis. Well it depends on the number of years she has been here. Again the law is that if your wife has been here for one year, she can get it so far as there is job. At first it was two years bur later it was changed.
You can contact the ZAV.
All the best.

Hi Koloz
I have contacted ZAV 1 month ago. The regulations was not changed. Please read my first post of this thread. 1 year = tied work permit, 2 years = the work permit you mentioned.

Hi Friends,
Thank you all guys a lot. I got unexpected number of replies, which are very useful.
We have checked with employer, they say it is ok. She can get WP, but they have not started the process yet. May be checking with lawyers ... God knows.
I will update the outcome .... as it and when happens.
Best regards,
