    will new travel ban affect EAD ?

    The Executive Orders are not very clear and are giving headaches to everybody including DHS and USCIS folks. But, the text say that all Immigration Benefits should be suspended for nationals of those countries. EADs might be one of them. But I heard that the officers are asked to treat cases...

    Citizenship Interview - Travel to COP

    I am not lawyer (but lawyers can't be 100% sure) so, I can't be certain. But I would say that if you traveled to COP for some limited time, and have letter from doctor and list of your precautions, I believe you should be fine. So, don't stress too much on this part. Prepare your overall...

    Driver's License without EAD approved?

    It might depend on the specific law of your state, Michigan in this case. I know there are some not immigrant-friendly states that requires you to have a valid EAD before obtaining a driver licence. I would advise you to call your local DMV office to ask them about the type of documents needed...

    Citizenship Interview - Travel to COP

    Frankly it all depend on your particular officer. Your interviewer can be fine, trusting or you can also find someone who want to double check every little issue and make it all a big deal. So it's all a question of luck on who you end up with. Good luck to you all.

    Interview done on dec 27

    No one besides the aylum officer/supervisor can really evaluate your chances. At least not us simple forum members. But you feeling confident of your answers and your lawyer also feeling confident (given his/her experience) is a good sign. Did they ask you to come back in 2 weeks to pickup the...

    EAD after getting Asylum in Immigration court

    Your current status is Asylee. And you don't need an EAD anymore. Your driver licence coupled with your unrestricted SSN card is enough to prove your employment eligibility. But, if you feel more comfortable with an EAD for now (no HR questions to answer to), then you can apply for a new EAD...

    (urgent please) medical insurance for old lady with pending asylum case

    That's a very heartbreaking case. The way I see it now, she has two different situations. #1 She needs a health insurance quickly for her rehabilitation cost. #2 She only applied for asylum in September 2016. So Under current circumstances, she will not receive her interview notice until maybe...

    If trump win

    Just a wink to this post! On election day I too was confident that Hillary will win. This is an opportunity for all of us to remember that only God knows the future and everything is possible. Therefore, we should expect the best as well as the worse.

    If trump win

    I don't think he can the ones who have already filed for asylum per say. But I think he can change the law somehow and have the cases being processed exponentially faster both at the asylum and immigration courts and have the rejected ones ordered to be deported. Just an idea.

    Decision is undergoing final review

    @Luisa3030 I think I agree with @Asylum seeker . Looks like the Asylum Office refered you to the Immigration Court where a Judge will decide your case. So think of this as a new whole new step or a second chance. A chance to defend again your asylum case. So, if you can afford it, yes, it will...
