Article R5221-33 of the French Labour Code

Notwithstanding article R. 5221-32, the validity of the work permit referred to in 2° of I of article R. 5221-3 is extended by one year if the foreign national is involuntarily unemployed on the date of the first application for renewal.

If, at the end of this extension period, the foreign national is still unemployed, a decision is taken on his or her application, taking into account his or her rights under the compensation scheme for involuntarily unemployed workers.

Article R5221-33

Par dérogation à l’article R. 5221-32, la validité de l’autorisation de travail mentionnée au 2° du I de l’article R. 5221-3 est prorogée d’un an lorsque l’étranger se trouve involontairement privé d’emploi à la date de la première demande de renouvellement.

Si, au terme de cette période de prorogation, l’étranger est toujours privé d’emploi, il est statué sur sa demande compte tenu de ses droits au regard du régime d’indemnisation des travailleurs involontairement privés d’emploi.
