In this contribution we present a systematic comparison of the full off-shell calculation for pp -> ttj in the dileptonic decay channel with a description based on the narrow width approximation.
The aim of this study is to estimate the size of off-shell and non-resonant contributions to the
shape of differential distributions, that will be utilized in the top quark mass extraction using the
template fit method.
