April 2013 Asylum Applicants
- Thread starter persian1
- Start date
Most of the time, they always tell you to come back in either 7 days or 14 days to pick up the result,
and often, they call you later and tell you not to come because decision is pending,
or you came and you got denied or you came and you got approved,
so there is no indication on how this going to go...
the best indication is the response of the asylum officer when they interview you,
if you are comfortable with their response, and it usually mean you are ok
May I know which asylum office do you go for interview?
and how long did it took from the day USCIS received your application to the day of your interview?
Thanks

Houston Office. Received documents March 27, Interview May 13. The asylum officer was nice but looked like she was fairly new and kept asking her colleague what to do or how to review the evidence I submitted. She seemed convince and I had affidavits, newspapers, and emails to show that I was ready to go back to my country until I started getting directed threats of death made by a homophobic group in the country.
I am worried because she insisted that the youth group isn't part of the country government. I told her that they are associated together. I don't know.
Waiting is hard.

Hope you success!
I am still waiting for the interview notice.
Thanks a lot dear. Sure you also will recieve it soon.
Patience
Hey guys, I know the wait can be long at times, but sometimes the feeling you get after you get the results is worth it.
I applied for asylum on March 26, 2013 and I was granted on May 14, 2013. My lawyers were awesome. You don't need the lawyers for the day of the interview or to file your application. I did that all by myself. However, you need the lawyers to prepare all the necessary documents needed to help your case. They know how to prepare the affidavit with all the vital information. AO needed to read the case before the interview, so it's best if your lawyer can summarize everything in like 3-4 pages for the AO. It helps.
GoodLuck guys.. I'm praying for y'all ,

I'm waiting for a letter of invitation to the interview.
I do not know when will receive a letter of invitation.
I am very worried.
It seems to me that the process is long.
I do not like it.
Maybe it was the new intern?
Congratulating you, friend!
As I see it, you and I both have filed case. And we have the same date)

I am holding B2 visa which will expire on someday in Jun. Maybe the time when I applicated just missed the deadline of the first priority group I think.
