If you have a job and get pregnant the last months you are in 'Mutterschutz' you get salary still but not 100 % after giving birth you can take Erziehungsurlaub you will get money but again not the full amount you got while working. If you do not have a job when you get pregnant you get Sozialhilfe and when the kid is born Kindergeld. But no one gets a salary unless working not in Austria and nowhere else in Europe.

Everything and anything is possble if you first believe in yourself and God. There is always a way. First you need to figure out what youre good at and then figure out a way to do it at home.Nothings comes easy in this world but it all depends on just how bad you want something.The money will follow if youre doing something you love so dont expect to get rich quick but you just might enjoy the journey. Of course you may have to figure in any extra training to accomplish but you can do it. Just believe. Good luck and Happy Holidays.

Japan work question? LOOK!!?
I speak some japanese, and i have American and Austrian citizenship (not that it really matters) I REALLLY want to go to japan to work and, of course, IMPROVE MY JAPANESE! ^_^ But, from what i've seen, it seems gloomy. Teaching english would be a dream, but i'm only 19 and have no college, and most all require college degrees (and the ones that don't cost an arm and a leg) I have been very involved with Solar, is there a demand in Japan for solar? What i'm really wanting to know is, How in the world can i get to japan, for about a year, to work Just to cover my expenese? Is there ANY possible way i could get sponsored by a company? Please PLEASE I am soo desperate, but it is soo hard getting teh working visa. And of course, Germany qualifies for a Holiday working but Austria doesn't!! >_< ANY AND ALL HELP IS GREATLY GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! Cheers soooooooo much!!!! BTW, I HAVE BOTH CITIZENSHIPS!! NO, I DON'T HAVE TO RENOUNCE MY AUSTRIAN CITIZENSHIP!

You could try to get a job at your embassy. Nova is the major english teaching company. I don't think you need college just be a native speaker for most places. Also I've been in Japan for 6 years now and they're definetly not on the whole go green fad that the US is on right now. They're killing whales and throwing stupid activists off their boats for trying to stop them.

Short answer: No. Long Answer. No you can't because you need a bachelors degree. A bachelors degree is an Immigration requirement for a work visa. At your age and experience, the only way you're going to get a company to sponsor you is to have the immigration requirement of having a bachelors degree. Teaching English in Japan isn't a dream, its more like a nightmare for many. Nova, which was a large language school in Japan, went bankrupt, they recently restructured but left hundreds of teachers and staff unemployed. The job market is not so great at the moment for English teachers. One post said look for embassy jobs. These jobs are highly competitive, and most times also require a degree. You should consider returning to school and getting a degree, it does help down later in life. I know many like to say "it is just a piece of paper", but that piece of paper gets you paid more and opens up more job opportunities. The likelyhood of getting a job for a Japanese company in the USA is hard without a degree of some sorts, and you really have to excel for them to transfer you to back to Japan.

Go work for a Japanese company in the USA that has a Japan presence. By the time you are 23 you will have your degree then you can ask for a transfer or apply for a job in Japan under the same company.
4 :
Sorry to be the one to break it to you but you're not going to be able to work in Japan, even to teach English. You need a 4 year degree from an accredited university/college or 10 years of documented experience in your field. Without these you're not getting a work visa. Even if somebody were to sponsor you, immigration wouldn't let you in. Your only other hope is to marry a nice Japanese girl.
5 :
In order to qualify for a working visa in Japan, you need an undergraduate degree. That's the law and it applies to all jobs. If you don't have that, then there is no way you can legally obtain a working visa and no one will sponsor you. Anyone that says otherwise is lying and will probably rip you off as soon as you arrive in Japan. Even if your nationality did qualify you for a working holiday visa, you still need to have completed one year of your degree. Your best option would be to go on a tourist visa, where you can stay for up to three months, or a student visa (you have to be studying at a Japanese university), or a spouse visa (as the name suggests, you have to marry a Japanese national).

My son is in Japan teaching English. he is in a Japanese college called British hills ...I can only suggest you type in British Hills Japan and see what comes up ! Hope this helps There is a course that you can do it will cost you...My son done it and it does allow you to teach English...The course he done took over 2 week-ends ...

No degree = no job. And you need to have good English to teach English ! BTW, to gain American citizenship you MUST renounce the citizenship of your home country.

I worked in Japan as an English teacher, without an undergraduate degree so the person who said 'anybody who says you can is lying' doesn't know jack. But as an American you can't and you said Austrians can't either. :-( Have you thought about teaching German (if you can speak it).There are less German speakers and it may be easier to get a job without a degree that way. At least it ups your chances to look for work in either/both languages. As another poster said Nova went bankrupt. A new company called G-communication took over Nova's business and is currently running it as Nova did (just on a lot smaller scale). Almost all other jobs require a degree, or another type of visa (working holiday which you said you can't get or spouse etc.) As someone else mentioned getting here on a student visa or some other visa like cultural or entertainment (if they apply), then you can always change later if you can find yourself a position. And as another person mentioned you can come to Japan on a 3 months tourism visa and see what work you can pick up (private students are paid in cash so no visa checks) and you might be able to land a sponsored visa by applying at all the employment agencies... Because a lot of places don't actually check your accreditation - and I know (personally) of 3 people who have jobs with visa's they purchased online. But I also heard of someone who didn't get a position because the government checked his degree when he applied for his visa, as they do random checks, apparently. There are quite a few jobs that are offered for people who already live in Japan. As the company doesn't want to bother with advertising abroad when they don't need to. If you have enough cash to get by and don't mind living in a guesthouse you can manage on a tourist visa, with privates and leaving the country to visit other places in asia for the weekend every 90 days. There is a online publication called Ohayo Sensei which you should look at and you can see what I mean about jobs being available to those who already live in Japan. It will be really, really hard to get a job without a degree, and right now isn't the best time because of the Nova thing, but if you are desperate and really, really want to be here then it can be done. Or see if someone wants a homestay/english teacher - I've seen it advertised once or twice but don't know anyone personally who's done it. But you could advertise here to swap english for a room and a small wage. Don't know what visa that would be though. As for privates the base rate is 3000yen a lesson (usually an hour) and a guesthouse is about 35000yen a month for shared accom in Tokyo.

Help on moving from the USA to Austria

Help on moving from the USA to Austria!?
My boyfriend wants to move to Austria from the US. I searched on the internet what he would have to do ( meaning getting a visa and such) My problem is that we both don't really know what is necessary to do before he can move to Austria, and work here too. So I guess I need detailed information, soon if possible :) Thanks in advance.

Call the Austrian Embassy in Wash DC. They can get you going. If money is not a problem there are immigration services that can help you smooth the process but they are usually expensive. http://www.austria.org/
2 :
If you are not citizens of Austria, then you both need passports from your country. Then you need to get a visa from the Austria Government. (you go to their embassy in your country and apply for the Visa). If you're a US citizen, check with our department of state (on the internet) they could tell you if you need a visa for Austria or not. If fact, probably the Austrian Government could tell you that too. Also on the internet. Getting a job and working in Austria is another story. You have to first, be in Austria. Then apply to the Austrian Government for a work permit. I the work permit is approved, Now you can both do your thing. Good Luck.

there is a lot to do before you can move there. first you need a passport, copies of any old passports, a recent photo, the residence permit application, original/notarized birth certificate, you need a criminal report saying you have committed no crimes, proof of health insurance, proof of sufficient financial means (a.k.a.-show them you have lots of money, i'm talking of more than just a few grand), proof of lodging in austria, photocopies of all these documents-all of this is just for the residence permit, i'm not even talking about the work permits. this is a long and costly process, just so you know. it is also lengthy. you may have to wait a few years to get in cause they do have quota's. the only way the quota's don't matter is if you make more than 4,200 euros a month and are quite educated/well off. other than that, the best is to contact the embassy.
