Ok talked to my lawyer. Here is what he said. Class of Admission is always Asylees for us folks. COA as immigration refers to indicates prior immigration status before LPR was achieved(if you have LPR).
When you were granted Asylum, you were "admitted" again and given a new I-94. That is your class of admission and DATE. The I-94 is a legal document that validates your Class as being asylee and date. Thats why they give you the I-94.
If you entered U.S on a visitors visa and were granted Asylum, Your class of Admission is Asylee with the date you got your I-94.
I hope this clears up things. In summary, a new I-94 always replaces the old one(if you got one before applying for asylum), so every asylee got a I-94 when they got approved, their class is Asylee.
Hope this helps.
