TLDR : Answer Summary

The question pertains to the estimated processing time for a work visa application submitted by the user's wife to Germany on February 19th. Comments suggest that the process may take anywhere from 12 to 15 weeks, but there is uncertainty about whether anyone in the group has experience with this specific application.

It depends on the working efforts of the higher court (Oberlandesgericht) - can take up 12-15 weeks from my experiance ! For more you can send a PM !

From Germany (as in a Non B for Thailand) or for working in Germany? If the latter then probably out of the scope of this group to advise.

Most probably here never ever has a group member applied for a work permit for Germany.
