If one can get hired within 90 days of entry into Germany and then file for residency permit and employment permit, that should also be an option. To again I do advice to seek consultation beforehand...</li></ul>Other nations may have different requirements and are potentially easier to attain for people without an academic degree. <ul><li>Allegedly the <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/Netherlands" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Netherlands</a> and their <a href="https://infosec.space/tags/DAFTA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DAFTA</a> (Dutch-American Friendship Treaty) scheme may be more accessible for some, but I don't know Dutch and can't refer to a lawyer in the Netherlands.</li></ul>Needless to say that I'd see the chances of getting asylum or protected status granted as very slim right now.<ul><li>Either way I do recommend to - (if possible) - arrive directly in Germany as first point of entry into EU/EFTA/Schengen to avoid any Dublin-II situation where agencies may demand one to file for asylum at the point of entry if one has to do so at some point.</li></ul>Again: "Passport Privilegue" helps a lot, or as I call it "Business Class Escape"...

Uli Kusterer (Not a kitteh)Fun Fact: “donation" is a specific legal term that is protected in many countries. Many people colloquially call any amount of money that you get without having to do something specific in return a “donation”. If you do that in public (e.g. on web sites or broadcast video like Twitch or YouTube) you get in trouble in most countries, because you must be an accredited charitable organization to be allowed to ask for donations.You may, however, solicit tips in many places.<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/ianal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ianal</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/notLegalAdvice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#notLegalAdvice</a>
