Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask if it is possible to get a work permit. I came as a PhD student (non-EU) with my partner, but in the middle of my studies, I dropped out. Ever since then, I have been living as a dependent of my non-EU partner for two years now. For the last two years, I had no work permit. However, this time, when I renewed my residence permit with the same documents as the last two years, I can see that I have unlimited access (written as Arbeidsmarkt : Onbeperkt) to the labor market. Is it possible to get this, or do you think it might be a typo? Is my Nederlands tripping?

Thanks for your input!
