No retroactive residence permits for tolerated persons: Aachen Administrative Court confirms strict separation in skilled labour immigration law
The Administrative Court of Aachen has ruled that qualified tolerated persons are not entitled to a retroactive residence permit under the Skilled Immigration Act.

Aachen Administrative Court: No entitlement to extension of residence permit after dropping out and changing degree programme in case of insufficient academic success and late application
On 3 March 2022, the Administrative Court of Aachen ruled that a foreign student is not entitled to an extension or new residence permit if she permanently discontinues her studies, changes her course of study without the consent of the immigration authorities and submits the application for an extension late. The lack of a fictitious effect, an unauthorised change of purpose and the overall inadequate course of studies with no realistic prospect of graduating soon were decisive. The decision emphasises the strict application of Section 16b AufenthG and underlines the obligations of international students to submit their application on time and to provide evidence of their academic success.
