Processing time for green card based on asylum

Thanks! So now do I sent it with copy of my green cars? Or how do I apply for free? How do I proof that I'm eligible for w first time free.

I am not sure but I think you need to send your I-485 application ( I-797 ). To make sure first check on Uscis fee calculator enter your info and see if you are eligible. If you are eligible you can contact Emma to double check what you need to provide.

Thanks for this. I think it's only free for asylee with pending Greencard applications. When you are approved, you will have to pay the fee.
I just checked and cos I'm a Greencard holder fr Asylum the charge me 220 but if I have a pending application then it's free
 
Hello all,
I got my asylum application approved two years ago (back in July 2020). I even got my green card based asylum few weeks ago. The problem is that today ( July 23, 2022), I received an email tells me that my asylum application case status was updated to show that "Decision Was Mailed". Is this a system error or a problem? Can anyone advise me please?
Thank you
 
Hello everybody,
I have a question
is anybody travel to Cyprus with their refugee travel document before? If yes I need to ask couple questions about visa process and entering the country
Thanks
 
hi guys my i-485 is pending at msc service center since march 2021. i was thinking my i-485 would be approved in this year and so didn't apply for a work permit, now my license expires next month and i went to the bmw to renew my license, they refused to renew it since my work permit expires next month also. so i told them that my i-485 is pending and also showed them my i-797(notice of action).they say either bring a green card or a work permit to renew it. so i don't know if i should apply for a work permit now and wait for that now.

Bring your I-94 showing Ashlee Status to DMV to renew your DL.

Hey brother.
Congratulations on your green card.
I had a few questions.
Did you have to take a interview for green card ?
How long does asylum based process take?
Thanks
 
i donn't have that
If you are Asylee in US, you must have an I-94 form. It’s a white piece of paper with your photo and name and birthdate on it. USCIS stamps it with “Asylee Status, indefinite”. It is given to the Asylee together with the Asylum Approval Notice.

Hi,
I had a really confusing call with USCIS. I recently got my Green Card based on an asylum. I applied to renew my refugee travel document (my previews RTD is going to expire in a couple of months) while my I-485 application was pending. USCIS closed (terminated) my pending refugee travel document application after they approved my form I-485 application. I got confused and I called them. They said that since now you have your Green Card and can enter US without any problem, you no longer need RTD. I said that is right I may enter US with any issue but to the country I am traveling needs a RTD or passport and I think I cannot use my passport from my country. But from her response she sounded like that is not our problem because you can leave and enter US without any issue using your Green Card and you may need to deal with other countries yourself. This doesn't make sense to me based on what I have heard and read many articles online. I think I still need RTD even having an asylum based Green Card. Does anyone have such experience?
Hi there,

Have you got any updates?

The same thing happened to me today and they denied my RTD application after I received my green card.

That is so absurd!!!!!

I called them for the second time yesterday and they said someone will call me back. Not sure what they would say this time.
 
Hello everyone
I I know this might not be the right place to ask but I cannot get any answer.
I'm applying for France Schengen visa with my RTD.
In the application form they are asking me about US residency, green card or I 94.
I do have I94, but Don't have my green card yet so
Problem is I 94 doesn't have expiration date on it But in the application they are asking me to put expiration date.
What should I do ?
should I put like 10 years from now or should I put expiration date from my state ID.
Please help

Mannn why you do that? Fly to brussles as Belgium is visa free then take the train to paris It’s almost 60 -80 mins and you will be in the heart of Paris!!! Don’t waste time on applying for visa!
I lived in Belgium for 1 year and was going every 2 weeks to Paris by train as it’s so close and no borders

Yeah it's a good idea and also add to that I think Frande might not issue him a visa with just The RTD. Is France a visa free with RTD?

No France ain’t visa free for US RTD holders just Netherlands and Belgium and Germany as western europe countries accept the US RTD
 
I'm also planning to visit couple other countries so it's better if I have a Schengen visa
It’s up to you but if these countries in west or east Europe you can easily travel by car or train with no restrictions! The only country has check point boarders is Switzerland and also if you wanna go Italy or spain you need Schengen visa
