For those who were asked for I-485 green card interview at a local USCIS office one year after receiving asylum, please share your experiences, thank you!!
Hi all,
My asylum-based I-485 green card application was transferred National Benefits Center in Missouri. I'm pretty worried as some people say this usually means that USCIS will have me for an interview. However, I thought as the primary asylee, my I-485 application should not need an...
I just called the asylum office asking the status about my case since I completed the interview more than 1 month ago. Rather than being informed the decision ove the phone, I was informed that the decision was already mailed out and I should receive it very soon.
As I'm out of status, I've...
That's exactly my situation. I earned the income while on F1, but I'm now only having a pending asylum. On the tax forms I'll need to state my status, and I only saw F1 was among the option of immigration status, but pending asylum is not a legal status in the forms.
I was a student on a F1 visa last year from January to September. After decicing to apply for asylum, I gave up my F1 status and now the only status I have is pending asylum. However, while I was in school before withdrawing, I had an on-campus job and SSN, and I also earned income from the...
I completed my asylum interview exactly two weeks ago, and was told that I should receive the decision in two weeks. However, I still haven't heard anything about the decision, and I entered my Z number checking my case status online, there's always "Your Case Cannot Be Found at This Moment." I...
Thank you for all your replies! The truth is that I'm not economically well-off, and I cannot afford a suit... I do have a pair of nice black pants though, but the brown jacket is my best outfit now...
And I applied in May 2013, and have been waiting for 8 months before receiving the interview...
I'm going to have my asylum interview next week, but I'm a little unsure about what to wear for that important occasion. Can I wear a pair of blue jeans, and a brown jacket? Would that be considered inappropriate? I would appreciate your thoughts! Many thanks!
Thank you! But unfortunately, it's only a job at McDonald's. I'm really hopeless since McDonald's even wants an UNRESTRICT ead... The work permit seems to be useless.
I'm in pending asylum but already obtained my work permit and social security card. However, there is a sentence "VALID FOR WORK ONLY WITH DHS AUTHORIZATION" on the card. Though I have my C(8) word permit, I was denied a job after the interview because the restriction sentence on my social...
I'm still waiting for an interview notice, but received my a(8) EAD recently. Currently I'm working at a restaurant, but the restaurant doesn't take care of my health insurance. I wonder how can I obtain health insurance as I already have the work permit? I was told by someone that as long as...
Thanks a lot! I just quitted the job today, and have located my 2nd job in another restaurant which would prepare tax forms for me. I really hope the waiting for interview period could end ASAP, so that I could continue school and my life. Just don't want to spend my life working in a restaurant...
I applied for asylum in June 2013, but still haven't received an interview notice. I obtained my EAD (work permit) recently during the waiting period, and I started to work in a Chinese restaurant. However, the restaurant didn't ask me to fill any employment form, and only pays me cash. I asked...
Does anyone have some information to share about Newark Office? I filed my application in early June this year but am still waiting for an interview notice.
Also, are the asylum officers harsh in that Office?
Many thanks!!
