Hello,
I have been living and working in Belgium for 8 years. I have been in my current job for over 4 years and will soon leave and start a new job. I would be interested in applying for citizenship at some point. I understand that to avoid the language requirement you should have 5 years continuous / uninterrupted work. I have heard this is extremely strictly defined, literally your end date on one contract should be the day before the start date of the one (including weekends). I would love to confirm this as I need to set a start date with the new job, ideally I would take a week off in between jobs, but I do not want to jeopardise a possible citizenship application (and I could take the language requirement but would prefer to avoid it).
Thanks for any help!
Jill
