For how long do you wait for the interview?

Hi guys,
I applied for asylum in August 2013 and still didn't get a note for the interview. I contacted my local asylum office in Rosedale, NY and got a letter from them last week saying that my interview will be scheduled in the future as resources permit. My lawyer's assistant told me that I could apply for work permit already, so I did so. I wonder if anyone is in the same shoes? Are here those who applied for asylum in in the spring/summer 2013 and got their interview notice already? Pls share the experience.

Thank you!
