A card with unlimited work rights

Hello All,


I got approval for my unlimited work permit.

I am still on A card but now with unlimited work permit (not bound to my employer).

What kind of work I can do now.

I am in software industry but I am not interested in the software job any more.

I am planning to leave my current company and looking for something more field work (Blue collar job)

Is it possible I can do field work with this card now.

Work I am interested in ( Delivery person(Deliveroo,uber eats), packers and movers,hospitality industry,taxi driver)

I am also concerned if my next renewal of A card will have any issue if i change to blue collar job.


Thanks

You can work any job … the problem with Renewal possible cause you may have no unlimited contract with this kind of jobs .. this is what I can imagine

@ievgenfeldmann

Thank you for the view.

But isn't the requirement for renewal that we need to submit last 3 month salary slip and not any work contract?

If you are holding an unlimited work permit then you can work whatever domain you would like to work.


Renewal for your A card  :


  1. If you are emloyee you will apply to municipality 3 months in advance with your current empolyement contract and last 3 months payslips.


  1. If you are self employed  tax declerations-tax statements etc.


Municipality send your documents to IBZ , they decides to give (or not)  you residence permit , and your new A card with new validity issued.


Good luck

True you are right they asked me last time for card L 3 last pay slips …

@maharaji1984


Thank you for the detailed information.

---------------------------------------------------------------

I am looking more specific what happens to renewal.

Is there any guidelines what criteria does  IBZ looks into?

I don't want to  loose the residency as this is going to be significant step I am planning to take.

@lafeti6379

It has to be a salaried position as stated on the unlimited work permit itself. The 3 months payslips are to show that you do indeed have a stable monthly salary

@lafeti6379


I don't know the exact criteria used by the authorities.


However, based on my own experience, similar cases discussed in this forum, and different situations I have encountered in various workplaces over the past 5.5 years in Belgium, nothing contradicts what I stated in my comments.


  1. Valid work contract
  2. Payslips
  3. Health insurance
  4. Clean criminal record

Thanks

Hi,

I have a question please,

if you get unlimited work permit, how long would be your A card?

is it valid just for one year and you need to renew it every year, or it is valid for 3 years?

@abolfazl karimi

Depends. Once i get 3 years and in the renewal 1 year. And similar situation with my colleagues

@abolfazl karimi

Got an A card which is only valid for 1 year, but don't know how much time they will require for renewal. Never really found the info on this forum either.

@lafeti6379

For how long is your NEW A card valid? After u got the unlimited work permit.

@pranav2424

Its for 1 year which starts from the date ur work permit is issued.

@abolfazl karimi

You need to renew it every year as IBZ wants to see if you are still empoyed

@umutgulum

What happens to the spouse of the unlimited work permit holder?? Does the spouse ID card also renewed for 1 year only? Or spouse ID CARD VALIDITY is de linked from the primary person?

@pranav2424

That depends on what status your spouse has.  If you have a family reunification, then it is linked to your permit.
