I want to work straightaway. What do I have to do?

Three men cutting plasterboards to shape

The fact that you want to earn your own money is a good thing. You can take up work in Germany, even during the asylum application process, after three months. At any rate you should make use of this time to learn the basics of the German language.

Make good use of the waiting period

This is a great advantage when you apply for a work permit. You can of course also gather more information during this waiting period, for example, visit a company that is recruiting. In addition, you can complete an internship very soon after your arrival and registration, i.e. do trial work. This will improve your chances of getting a real job.
