This text was rewritten into plain language (B1 level) automatically and may contain errors. Only the official German statute is authoritative — when in doubt, read the original text below or consult a lawyer.
Hardship provision
In cases of special hardship, approval can be granted without a priority check.
This means: If denying approval would cause particular hardship for you, the Federal Employment Agency can grant approval even if the normal requirements are not fully met.
Ausländerinnen und Ausländern kann die Zustimmung zur Ausübung einer Beschäftigung ohne Vorrangprüfung erteilt werden, wenn deren Versagung eine besondere Härte bedeuten würde.
