MY COMPANY IS SCREWING ME OVER

  • I really need some sound advice from someone knowledable.

    I am a US citizen and in January I came to Germany to start a year long internship. I had assumed my company was going to take care of all the visa/permits necessary for me to work in Germany (esp. since I don't speak German). I have a residency permit at the moment, but it was not until March (3 months after I had already started working), that my company helped me apply for a work permit. But to this day, I have not recieved approval for a work permit yet.

    So essentially, right now I am working illegally for this company and it is possible that I will be heavily fined and deported if authorities find out. The company keeps claiming that it is MY responsibility to get all the needed papers/stickers, but I truly believe that they are not pulling their weight.

    What can I really do in this instance? Shouldn't they have helped me apply for my work visa BEFORE I even showed up in Germany? And on top of that, they are making ME pay for the work visa!
