TLDR : Answer Summary

You can apply for an extension of your 3-month ed-visa at the immigration office 30 to 45 days before the visa expires. The latest date you can submit your extension request is the last day of your current permission to stay. The processing time for the extension can vary depending on the office's workload, ranging from a few minutes to hours.

You should check with your provider when they will have your paperwork ready to extend as well.
