A little update to you guys:
I just found out that i've been referred to IJ. I used the 1800# provided by "assylum" to find this out. I am now going to be on my way to pick up a not-too-pleasant official letter of referral.
The fight is not over!!
Don't lose hope. Your journey has started and eventually you will be granted asylum. I have a strong feeling that you will get it.
