April 2013 Asylum Applicants

Its been exactly 70 days from my fingerprint date and still awaiting the interview appointment. I ahev applied through Arlington office.

Wow!, Thank you Tasy for the feedback. Let keep each others hopes high and encourage each other through this difficult and slow moving immigration process. I get my peace by knowing that I am not alone in the battle. Once again, thank you for sharing with us your waiting period. I wish you all the best as you wait for an interview date.

Hello Guys.

I am Oguz. I have just seen this forum and read all post for this threat. Let me talk about my case a little bit. My wife is from Palastine, Gaza and I am from Turkey. Last year, almost her first year was about to finish of entering USA, we applied for her for asylum status (around 29 August, 2019). We went for fingerprint around September 10th and for interview October 1st of 2012. She was granted for asylum as of 2nd February, 2013.

As am a graduate student here and has J-1 visa which is valid through August 31st, 2013, i have applied for derivative asylum. My application was received by March 29, 2013 and had fingerprints takes as 15th April. 2013. Since then I am waiting for interview or notice of decision. I am not sure if I am suppose to have an interview. I read that it takes around 5 months for the decision.

Is there anyone with similar cases?

Hello Oakkas,

Welcome to the forum. Its a wonderful place to meet new friends and share experiences as we await for our immigration processes. Congratulations to your wife for winning her asylum. Based on your case, I would like to ask a few questions:-

1. Were you guys married before she filled for her asylum?
2. Did she include you in her asylum application as the husband?

Part of my questions are to ascertain why your status did not change when your wife was granted asylum. in Most cases when one spouse seeks asylum, they normally include the partner and all children under the age of 18. So when one partner wins asylum its normally a win for the whole family and the other family members are allowed to change their status based on the principal asylum seekers status. This is what is called derivative asylum.
I would advice you to seek the counsel of an attorney to help you out in your case. All the best in your app and again congratulations to you and your family.

Congratulations Nunka, I am so happy that you managed to get your approval letter. I am certain you shall get full asylum and soon a green card. Wow!!.. That's wonderful news. I am still waiting for my interview at Chicago, I have not yet received a letter to attend my interview. Its been 53 days since i got my receipt. I hope i shall get my interview letter soon. Thanks for the encouragement, I am happy that you have your approval letter.
 
Thanks Waz for you valuable comments.

Yes we were married before she filled the application. We decided to not include me in her cases because I am from another country and i do not have same situation that she has in her country.
