I had the asylum interview with the Asylum Officer on April 10th and got the decision on April 18th. The letter I received that day
states the following : You have received a recommended approval of asylum. The Asylum Officer has made a preliminary determination to grant you asylum, but the BCIS has not received the results from the mandatory, confidential investigation of your identity and background. If the results reveal derogatory information that affects your eligibility for asylum, the BCIS may deny your request for asylum or refer it to an Immigration Judge for further consideration.
Thanks,
