Hi everyone,

I’ve just finished my thesis and signed a full-time job contract starting in July.

Right now, I can’t apply for the Blue Card yet because I’m still waiting for my thesis to be graded. Once that’s done, my Notenspiegel will be complete and I can apply, but I expect the Blue Card process to still take some time.

I still have my student visa which permits 140 full-time work days, which I haven’t used yet.

So my question is: can I start working full-time in July under my student visa until I get my Blue Card, or could that cause issues?

Any advice or experience would really help.

Thanks
