Dear A-kasse,
I am a non-EU full-time PhD student.
My visa has an additional 6-month job-seeking period that allows me to work part-time (20 hours/week) while looking for a job after I finish my PhD.
Am I allowed to receive unemployment benefits for those 6 months?
I see that I meet the criteria of being allowed to take a next-day job, but not a full-time one.
In addition, if I could get the benefits, the same rule of having paid A-kasse for at least one year applies?
Many thanks.
Best
