Legal Advice/Pro bono Lawyer or Legal Assistance Agency?
May 23, 2016 @ 18:23
Hi all,
I have a couple of issues with my work permit - it's a very long story, and I could definitely share it for those interested to know/willing to give advice, but for now I would like to ask the following:
Has anyone attempted switching their permits from L to B before? Could a renewal of L permit automatically result in a B permit if a CDI contract is provided?
Does anyone know of any pro-bono lawyers or legal assistance agencies that provide consultations to foreign (particularly non-EU) employees regarding permit issues?
Any advice is much appreciated! Thank you :)

Hello Sarah,
No, a L permit for so-called third-country citizens (non-EU/EFTA) will not be converted into a B permit after 12 months. Simple reason: extending the L permit to reach the maximum 24 months doesn't require a new work permit quota, the conversion to a B permit does.
I hope this helps.

Good afternoon Miss Stephanie. I and my family live in France and we are Americans. Do you know of anyone that can help me with my naturalization process for France. Any help is greatly appreciated.
