60 months in pension system ?

Hi Detlef/Fellows.

Its mentioned on this page :

http://www.trust7....rmany/immigration_law

that one has to put in 60 months of pension to be eligible for the permanent residence.. apart from other requirements for getting permanent residence..

but what happens during the unemployment period ? since frm my lil understanding, no one is paying pensions contributions that time...

would that mean that if someone was unemployed for 6 months, then that person would have to work 5 years [60months-6months of unemployment] plus another 6 months before he/she can be eligible for permanent residence ?

Legal protection insurance (Rechtsschutzversicherung)

Hi GCs,

I guess most of us already know about this insurance. For all GCs or foreigners working in Germany on contract/project, should have such insurance. I believe it will save you whenever you have problems with your employer, traffic authorities (due to overspeeding/or any other offence), personal affairs (like appying for permanent residence under immigration law which allows you to apply for it if you are residing for 60 months in Germany or may be you are not getting the Childcare money of 307 Euro due to a missing marriage registration paper or something, etc), rented flats (often we get ghost bills from landlord/lady for extra nebenkosten or we get in trouble to get our security money back). A complete package costs 20 euro each month (Private, Profession/Job, Traffic, Rented Flats). If anyone is interested to know more about it, I can help. Good luck. This is just for info for those who are not aware of it.

Lets say, if you erroneously overspeed more than 21 over the permitted on the highway, you will get points, notice, fine and even in worse case to Nachschule (advance seminar) which costs around 400 Euro and even driving ban of some months can be added on top of it. In such case if you have a lawer's insurance, simply on receipt of any letter (Anhorung) from Traffic Authorities, simply deny that it was you. They claim that they have a photo take by the Camera. But they can not prove anything with that phot that it was you, because think of your speed and the photo only shows a shadow of you. The lawyer knows all tricks to help you get rid of such problems.

Re: 60 months in pension system ?

Hello,
At the very beginning of my green card, after the 3rd month, I've lost my job and I was jobless for 1 month. Then I received a letter from the Krankenkasse that I need to pay for this month the healt insurance my myself, about 100 EUR. (We are not supported by Arbeitsamt if we lose our jobs before the 12th month.)
But, I suppose, the pensions insurance is something different. Do somebody knows something about this? Is it possible to pay some, probably basic amount, and to be sure that my pension insurance doesn't have gaps?

Regards,
P.Petrov
