Hi all!

I am currently holding a EU blue card dating back to last year. However, this year I found out that my current salary does not exceed the minimum threshold for blue card since it increases every year. Per my understanding, this does not usually affect the current blue card status. However, I am more worried that it might affect my eligibility when I apply for the permanent residency since I have seen mixed response online. I have also written messages to local authority but have not received a response.

Can anyone confirm if it actually affects it? I currently only need 6 more months to be eligible for permanent residency. (I have B1 german already) Thank you all for any help!!
