Hello everyone! I am filling i-765 to get EAD (my case has been pending for 150 days). Could you please answer these questions: 1. The instruction says that I need evidence that my case is still pending. What kind of evidence can i attach? The asylum office does not give any papers that the...

I was interviewed 3.5 months ago. Still waiting. Don't ask me about the time frame:) They always ask for a birth certificate to double check your place of birth. Especially if you apply on the grounds of nationality. You can get your decision in 2 weeks or 2 years, nobody knows. Depends on how...

The meaning is that you are illegal in the U.S. A visa is just a paper to enter the country (i.e. cross the border), than, you need an additional paper which is called I-20. The I-20 is issued by the university you attend. Since you didn't attend the college you don't have the I-20, or even if...

Hey guys! I went to the office and the only thing they told me was "the officer is still processing you documents, he needs more time. Just wait, we will mail it". No additional information. Surprisingly, the secretary said she would pass my inquiry form to the officer and let him know that I...

The worst thing that might happen is if you get a refference to the immigration court.

Hey gfish75, don't rub salt into wound:) there are people at this forum who have been waiting for more than 5 months, so go get some pizza, beer and a dozen of good movies and stand in the line:) Just like we do:) P.s. I will go to the asylum office this Wednesday, I.e. May 19th. Will keep...

It's even better. You don't have to disprove that you came to study, liked the U.S. and decided to stay here. That's good. You came to this country only with the purpose to get protection.

If you get asylum you will be able to stay,work,and do whatever you like. But if they don't give you the decision right away or deny, you will be eligible for apllying for work permit only after 150 days (Immigration court also counts as pending asylum).

Do you have legal status in the U.S.? Sometimes officers make mistakes. Your best shot is to call the asylum office in Chicago (it's the one that service Minnesota) and ask them where you should pick up the decision. I don't know for sure, but my guess is that you have to pick it up in Chicago...

There is no such thing as Chicago state. You mean Chicago the capitol of IL? Go to USCIS.gov and find your local asulym office. I believe you pick up the decision exactly there you was interviewed. You can call them and ask, if you don't have an attorney. P.S. Stop "hearing what people say" and...

You will be considered illegal, which means you will be required to come pick up the decision in 2 weeks (not necessarily you will have it, might take longer) and if they deny ,they send your case to immigration court, if the judge denies, you will be deported from the U.S, and I doubt you will...

You are welcome. I had similar situation: at first, I lived and studied in Boston than I was admitted at in a California school. My attorney said "even if you got accepted to CA school we have to prove that you didn't move just to apply in CA ( Boston has very low rate of granted asylum). So we...

Hey Guys, when can I check if I won at dvlottery.gov? When does it become available?

You are lucky :D I am F1 and I have been waiting for 3 months already and it's still pending :D

I don't know about the speed, but what I know for sure is that each state has disparate acceptance rate. I believe CA is the most welcoming, FL and TX accept alot and so on. There is some official info on that online. But you can't just file it anywhere you want. You have to file it in the state...

You are more likely to get the decision earlier if you are illegal. However, being illegal does not guarantee you receiving the decision in 2 weeks. Some people wait for more than 6 months.

Not always. If you are in legal status you will be mailed the decision (they don't give you any time frames) it might take years and there is nothing you can do about it. If you are illegal, you are required to come pick up the decision in 2 weeks. In some cases they don't give you the...

Let us know when it comes please. It is supposed to be issued not earlier than after 30 days, isn't it? Good luck with that! Hope it comes soon

I did write a letter; moreover, I used the official form which says, "the answer will be mailed to you within 15 days". That wasn't much of help. When you call them, the answering machine says, "we do not provide any information regarding your case status by phone. Send us a letter". I do...

Yes I am. And you? Have you gotten any news so far? I will try to call them on monday or have my lawer call.
