I ran into someone who's been following asylum cases (as much as we've been following 485-EBs) yesterday. He said that the maneuver by BCIS to trim the backlog of the asylum applications last fiscal year resulted in the denial of 60 % of asylum cases. However, those asylum applicants did not just give it up, they re-appealed since the law allows them to do so.
And needless to say instead of reducing the BCIS backlog this re-appealing creates more work for BCIS. The legal process (he said) could take about 10 months.
Hope it won't affect us
