Status after Resigning JOB
Hi Friends,
I need an urgent help from you...
I am currently in a probationary period as software engineer in a firm. I want to resign my job as it is very hectic both work and travel distance. If I resign my job is there any possiblity to stay in Germany for 3-5 months in a "job seeker" status as I completed my studies in Germany. Please share your experience and let me know.
Thanks,
Ice Spy.

Re: Status after Resigning JOB
Hi,
Since you have a work permit based on that company, once you resigned the job, the work permit/visa is no more valid.
Note 1:
Before terminating from the current job, try to find the new job and then terminate
Note 2:
If you terminate from the current job, you have to pay your Krankenkasse etc... so you have to pay from your hand.
Note 3:
Is there any possiblity to stay in Germany for 3-5 months in a "job seeker" status?
Yes you can stay up to maximum of 3 months,the auslanderbehörde issues a Fiktionbeschenigung
But my advice is dont try to register that you dont have any work.In this case you visa is valid till the valid date printed on visa/workpermit(But risk factor)
If you are not clear with the above then write me again

Hi,
The best is - do not resign untill you get a job in Germany and the WP for the same, i.e. once you have a new job offer in Germany, you can have your existing WP for your old company while your new company can still apply for a new WP. Once the new WP gets approved, then resign immediately from your existing company. In this way you will be pretty safe as the visa office will simply make your existing WP invalid and issue you the new WP from your new company. But once you resign without any offer, its risky.
