Time taken for an individual with Ausbildungduldung the asylum process to end.

Question

Hello as per the instructions I gave my passport to the Ausländerbehorde for verification. I am in the second year of my ausbildungs. It has been weeks and months but still no response from the Ausländerbehorde regarding my case. Last time she informed me that the case is still running. My lawyer has applied for Ausbildungsduldung. Could anyone please help me out in the situation?  I will complete my 5 years of my stay in Germany in the year 2022 and in the year 2023 my ausbildung will get over.

Hi @Sidra,

There is unfortunately no specific time frame for the processing for an application for an Ausbildungsduldung. I have found one document about it from the Refugee Council in the region of Saxony-Anhalt where it said processing was on average 3 months, sometimes longer. If you have submitted a passport and your Ausbildung contract, I don’t see any reason (other than perhaps a large caseload at the Ausländerbehörde due to the situation in Ukraine) for it not to be processed quickly.

Under German administrative law, if an application is not processed within three months, you have the opportunity to submit a legal complaint called an ‘Untätigkeitsklage’. This would be something to consult with your lawyer about doing. Here is some information about this type of procedure. It comes from Wikipedia via an online translation so it is only to give you a basic outline; it is not a reliable legal source:

Best,
