If they deny me I will probably lose my work authorization that I just got - I haven't even found a job yet. Also I know I can reapply - but since now I passed the 1 year deadline while waiting for many months during this application, maybe they will just reject me now. Then what will I do?

Are you in status? Maybe I can give you some advice and we can exchange some info.

Ouzy do you have a lawyer?

Are there any other people here who can confess to approval after a rebuttal? And how long did it take? Also how many people received a final denial from AO after a rebuttal? Did the AO explain why?

If he is out of status by the time the asylum office denies the case, his case will still be pending because it will be referred to an immigration judge. At this point no news is good news. I think the AO's get caught up on irrelevant details sometimes. Keep up hope (if only I could follow my...

Where did you hear this 1 out of 5 statistic? My rebuttal is very strong because I disprove every objection they have with evidence and state department reports. But I am still afraid...

Perhaps some people who have been on here longer would know if there are many (any?) approvals after a NOID... My NOID had numerous omissions and mistakes on their part and we sent a strong rebuttal explaining every 'objection' they had. Any idea if I have any chance? Or is it just moot after...

I received a NOID - that was full of omissions and errors on their part - incorrectly stating facts in my testimony, incorrectly referencing/interpreting state department country reports, ignoring crucial medical evidence submitted by a US medical professionals etc. We sent a strong rebuttal but...

I received a NOID and sent a rebuttal with my attorney. The NOID included some mistakes on evidence as well as documented country conditions and omissions etc. Although the rebuttal addressed all of them, I am of course very distressed and worried. I am almost out of status but what if the AO...

I am happy for you. It must be such a relief. Did they just directly approve it? I was sent a NOID :(

Hello - I am in a similar situation as your wife! Same country & same scholarship. Have you found any solutions to the problem? Please let me know and maybe we can share information and help each other!!!

It is risky. I would consult an attorney for legal advice at least. Especially recently (although they existed in the past as well) there are very strict rules about visiting the home country. Is your current green card based on your marriage? That may make a difference, but I am not sure.

Hi John, I don't know for Boston, but I remember when I was looking I found some info on the USCIS website somehow that listed organizations that help asylum cases for free. I am in NY so the references I found probably wont help you. But go on the USCIS website - I am sure they have some for...

Thank you. I have seen that too - but I've also seen something contradicting it so I am still a bit worried. I wonder if anyone had a similar experience and had a problem or had it resolved. I just panic about it so much.

Yes, of course you can. Where are you? You should find someone to represent you. There are some Christian (and other) organizations that can provide representation for free. You have a 1 year deadline to apply, calculated from your last entry into the US.

Are asylum applicants eligible for Obamacare before approval?

I am not sure, but I've read on these forums that a second one is usually a *good* sign. Some people posted that after their second one they shortly after received approvals. Good luck. Also at the very least it means someone is actively working on your case - which for most of us isnt true...

Hello, sorry I saw this late. You can get what is called an 'advisory opinion' directly from USCIS for free. Here is the USCIS link: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/general/advisory-opinions.html Your situation seems complicated so I am not sure if it would be India or Canada...

Has anyone previously subject to 212(e) - 2 year home residency requirement via J-1 visa received asylum +GC? I just want to make sure I am eligible for a GC if I get asylum. Any experience is helpful, thanks.

The 'home' residency pertains to your original country of residency when you received the J-1 visa - which is India not Canada. Having said that the 2 year rule only comes into effect when/if you need an immigrant visa from the US. Canadian citizens can sometimes visit (maybe even work? you have...
