Hello everyone,
This is slightly specific, so please bear with me.
I already received ITA in April but had to decline since I didn’t receive my police certificate from Germany in time.
My points at that time were 488, so I am not too worried about not receiving a future ITA.
However, since my whole application got delayed anyway, now I am wondering...
Is it better to wait until you have completed 12 months of full time work at one job and then apply only with that job or apply with 11 months at my full time job and combine 2 other years of part time work with it?
More to my background:
I started working on august 14th 2017 as a full time retail store manager, meaning at this point I have 11 months of work experience in this job.
Ever since I received my PGWP more than 2 1/2 years ago, l have been working as a ballet teacher (NOT self employed, so I know the hours count), for roughly 15-20 hours per week, however, this is generally an employment from September until June ONLY, so my full hours worked are not the equivalent of a full year of Full Time work experience, but obviously combined with the 11 months in the other job I would be way over a year..probably close to 2 years.
I am just wondering if any particular route would work out more favourable for my case?
My PGWP expires on september 18 though, so if I wanted to go with the one job only (which I will complete requirements for on August 14th), i’d have a month to get an ITA and get my application in.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Julia
