No problem.

No worries As what other guys said, try to remember the your submitted package well and be consistent, you'll be fine. The officers just tried to see if you are eligible for asylum or not, of course you must convince him of your story, but to a persecution victim that is not a problem. For...

Hello guys, I have a series of questions. I am currently in Asylum status in the US. What will happen: (1)before getting green card I am issued an immigration visa by another western country? Will US revoke the protection due to this visa? what if I got the visa but won't land that country...

Malel, please search this forum,....as if I read of something before in you case...it seems somebody just traveled out with his/her NP and returned with a blank RTD. In my understanding, the IO wouldn't challenge you in that case because as long as your NP is still valid you can use it as the...

I think he means he has both the NP and RTD, and when exiting US he is gonna use NP, and use RTD when he travels back, correct? But I have a question, since you have already an RTD, why do you just use RTD to apply for visas and travel back? It would be less troublesome.

The approval date is written on the approval letter (I remember it should be on the new I-94 card, maybe also on the approval letter), but does not have to be exactly the same date as the letter issued. The letter is dated right at the day you go to pick up the result, and normally not the...

Thanks. Doesn't it say that we also need a advanced parole even if we traveled overseas with asylum green card? Advanced parole costs the same as a RTD, even if our NP is still valid, we still need to pay $305. That's not fair.

How much does it cost right now if you apply for an RTD? It seems as an asylee, our NP became useless tho it is still valid, since our NP won't help us re-enter US. Even if we get a green card as an asylee, we have to apply for RTD right? And RTD is only valid for 1 year, so it would cost...

Thanks. I wish you guys look luck!

Welcome YAHA12 and all the best to you too.

I went back to pick up my decision yesterday. After checking in, people had to wait for being called. Instead of the interview rooms, you need to go to the windows just in the waiting hall to pick up the decision. That day only 2 windows were open and I guess one guy was responsible for the...

Yes, they are different. I am not very clear about this, but I've heard that the derivitive can go to COP since they are not definitely the people who got persecuted, just got the status from principals. Maybe some guys who know it better can give you more hints.

Hahaha, that's funny, but I can understand since this kind of interview is pretty discretionary, so that the IO would ask whatever he/she wants to know. That IO you mentioned must have been wondering how on earth that guy crossed the border. LOL. Me, too.:D

Thanks. Wish you good luck too. The info I've got from their working procedure is the same as what you mentioned above. However, I have legal status and I still need to be there in person in 2 wks. I've also noticed, when I was checking in that day for the interview, the clerk already started...

I am also waiting for the decision of the asylum interview. I found currently it seemed everyone needed to pick up the decisions by themselves. However, I remember their working manual mentioned that we could choose either by mail or in person. Well, maybe they don't trust USPS? LOL.

Thanks guys. I just checked this thread today. Actually I have completed the interview with the Asylum officer and am waiting for the result. Luckily, no question on the translation. I prepared everything by myself, no lawyer, no translator. I don't have translator's certification, neither...

Thanks so much for your wonderful explanation!

Hi guys, I've got a question. I am a B-2 (can stay here up til 2009) and applying for Asylum. I've heard if my application was refused I can do a "rebuttal"? What if rebuttal failed too? Can I have a chance to appeal to the court? Thanks!

Thanks again. Another concern. If I translated all non-English documents by myself, will my application package be rejected and returned back by BCIS or Asylum office? What if I did not sign on the translation? I hope they won't reject to file my application just because a small part of...

Thanks thankful. I am quite sure that my case is never started being processed by Canadian Consulate, since they keep changing the immigration act. So it seems I'm all right. I just didn't realize that I need to escape my home country and apply for asylum instead of an immigration program...
