Hello everyone,
i am extremely stressed out as if my life is about to be over. I reside in Los Angeles and I am Middle Eastern and a citizen of a EU member country. I applied for asylum based on racism, discrimination and xenophobic and racial violence towards me.
Background:
I came on a F1 visa and I graduated college with a degree in registered nursing in December 2016 and then I had 60 days to leave. When I realized I had to go back memories came back and I couldnt just bare it and couple days later I broke down in a busy street, was transported to the ER and was diagnosed with panic attack/anxiety based on that.
A week later I met with an attorney and filed for asylum based race and discrimination.
I had my interview mid July and 2 weeks after I got the soul crushing news that I was referred to immigration court on the second week of September.
Before I reconsult with my attorney (and pay more to prepare my case) I just wanted to get some info from you helpful people so that I could ease my mind hopefully.
My biggest fear is having to go back. This option does not exist for me. I have absolutely nothing back there and never had. I have everything here. I am fully integrated here. I would be on suicide watch if i was back there. I would lose everything.
Despite that and having a degree in a medical field that faces a big shortage in the US, I have also created and written a show ( dark comedy series) which we will start filming in a couple of weeks. I m not just saying it cause I wrote it but this one has many people interested and I have experienced people from the industry working for me for free because they believe in it and that we could sell it/get distribution and then I m able to pay these (around 10) people properly. I have no doubt this show will create a buzz and I can employ people and built up a something really positive. Literally, my life depends on that project so I am not messing around with it.
With that and my registered nursing degree plus with my love for this country I have no doubt I will be a successful immigrant story.
Is that a good thing for my case?
Could I get a cancellation of my removal order if I dont get asylum so that I would have time to work on my project and therefore, if i get an agent I could apply for O1 visa?
Does prosecutorial discretion apply here with me being able to possibly employ US citizens and/or work in a medical field where the US has a big shortage?
Or could my attorney ask for my individual hearing to be way in the future so that I have time to accomplish all that above mentioned?
Any answer is helpful appreciated.
