The university career center has told me that most employers seek citizens or perm residents for employment - so they refuse to change my work authorization status so I can connect with employers.. However since it is illegal to discriminate when hiring, how can I handle this? Is it illegal to...

Asylum office requested that I confirm I am no longer in student status. I guess this means that they will refer my case to immigration court instead of approving it. I am so scared. I feel an anxiety attack coming, and can't breathe :(

Has anyone been able to purchase health insurance as an asylum applicant? Please let me know where from! Thank you.

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 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...

Where can I take DVL photo? Is it the same as a passport photo taken at Walgreens CVS etc?

I can't help but notice that there are very few denials each month at the asylum office. I wonder what that implies. This is an example from NYAO but they all seem similar. In one month; 637 cases completed, 9 denials, 121 approvals, rest referred to immigration court. Clearly most...

Is there anyone like me that was interviewed in NY in October? They told me to come pick up my decision in 2 weeks, then sent me home without telling me anything on the day they were supposed to deliver a decision.

The AO told me to pick up my decision on a particular day and time. I travelled there and they told me: didn't anyone call you? Someone should have called you, there is no decision on your case. There is no information about when there will be a decision. It will be mailed to you. Did this...
