Hello,

Sorry for writing in English, my German is still horrible. I am a long term resident in Italy and I have a long term permit for stay and work issued by Italian goverment, so called EU documents. I am not an European citizen.
An employer from Germany had made a concrete offer for work, we signed a contract and applied for my work permit in Immigration office in the city where is the company that is offering me work.
I have following questions:
      According to your knowledge how long it takes that the Immigration office answers to such an application (they told me about 4 weeks and that everything should be ok since I am an engineer and PhD, but the practice is often very different from theory :-))
      What happens with my Italian EU long term resident documents? Does Germany authorities take Italian documents upon giving German permit for stay and work or just control Italian documents and give them back to a holder? This is important for me regarding Italian authorities, since they are making problems here
      According to your knowledge what expiry date should have my first German documents, if I get an approval? An employer made me working contract for an indefinite duration, I don’t know does it matters regarding the expiry date for permit for work

Thank you in advance for your patience. Best regards
Elena
