I have a question. What did the status show when you have your second interview? Was it saying “next step is interview” or something?

How did they schedule the second interview? Did they call your lawyer, or did they send a notice? How far in advance?

My lawyer reached out to them few times but they were just giving us generic responses, on the 4th times someone actually went and look at my folder/system and realized that I need second interview, then they scheduled it.
They called my lawyer.
About 10 days in advance.

Why exactly did you lawyer reached out to them in the first place? You were already interviewed in March. Was it to ask for their decision?

Yes, it was to ask for the decision.
After the interview I was told to return on 03/23/2020 to pick up my decision then because of COVID I couldn't go there in person , so they said they'll mail it. My lawyer reached out because it was over 180 days since I filled my asylum application.
