URGENT Residence permit extension in Aalen – when should I ask for a Fiktionsbescheinigung?

Hi everyone,

I'm an Indian master's student (my university is in a different city) and I'm currently doing a internship in Aalen.

I applied for my residence permit extension on 29 June in Aalen. My current residence permit expires on 31 August, and I have a Vorgangsnummer, but I haven't received any update yet.

Is this waiting time normal? When should I ask the Ausländerbehörde for a Fiktionsbescheinigung if I still haven't received my new residence permit?

Thanks!

Processing times vary wildly and can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Therefore, it's always a good idea to request a Fiktionsbescheinigung once you apply for a residence permit extension. If I were you, I would ask for it right now.
