Extension of residence permit for the purpose of research for beneficiaries of international protection

Source: Zuständigkeitsfinder Schleswig-Holstein (Linie6Plus)

Service Description

Under certain conditions you can extend your existing residence permit for the purpose of research

The residence permit for the purpose of research for beneficiaries of international protection is a temporary residence title. You can apply for an extension of the residence permit for the purpose of research if your activity at a research institution is to be continued beyond the period of validity of your residence permit.

Apply for the extension of your residence permit at the foreigners authority responsible for your place of residence no later than eight weeks before the expiry of the time limit.

If you were obliged to attend an integration course when your residence permit was first issued, this will be taken into account when your residence permit is extended. If you have not yet taken part in an integration course, the Aliens' Registration Office may reject your application for an extension of your residence permit. If you have not yet completed the integration course, your residence permit will generally only be extended for one year at a time until you successfully complete it or provide proof that you have been integrated into social life in some other way.

In the case of an extension, your residence permit will be limited again. The residence permit for the purpose of research is extended for the duration of the research project.

As a rule, the residence permit cannot be extended if this was already ruled out when the residence permit was issued or last extended.
