I applied for asylum under my mom's case & we were denied first time because of a misunderstanding & some mistakes with the translation. I wasn't in the interview so I don't know what happened exactly. We both reapplied but in seperate cases. It's been 3 weeks and we haven't received any mail or reciept yet. Is there anything wrong? Should I be worried? We're out of status now and I'm afraid that something might be wrong. Also, how long will the whole process take? Until we get a reciept and an interview date? My sister was granted asylum a couple of months ago, and we pretty much have the same case and reasons. Does that improve my chances? Any tips or things I should know? Please help?
