Niederlassungserlaubnis (Permanent residence permit) rules

  • Hello,

    I have been working as an Engineer in Germany since Sept. 1, 2005. However, I had many jobs in seperate intervals of time. 09.05-03.06 (7 months) then 06.06-09.06 (4 months) then 01.07-present. Throughout these jobs, I had limited residence permits (Aufenthaltserlaubnis).
    In order to obtain a permanent residence permit (Niederlassungserlaubnis), I need to have worked 5 years in Germany. Will my work in the past 2 years be counted for the Niederlassungserlaubnis? Or should the work be consecutive for 5 years?
    Thanks!
