Is it possible to extend "Blue card" after four years being in "Blue card"?

Yes, it is possible of course..

It is possible but by default your Auslanderamt will put you to Permanent residence once they see you are eligible for it. You need to specify your needs and ask for extension of your existing blue card.

Hi, just out of curiosity, why would you want to extend your blue card instead getting a Permanent residence?

I am planning to leave Germany very soon in 7-8 months or earlier, so I don't need permanent residency

Ahh ok

I don't know how legit is this: https://pension-refund.com/ but you may be interested, basically helps you claim your pension payments if you are leaving the country
