Hey Guy, pls can any one advice me on the below:

We earlier got a day in April 2020 and we were rescheduled due to Covid19 and till now no new date. My lawyer called/mail and they said presently due to Covid19 they aren’t sending any officer to our earlier schedule interview Location. Immediately my Lawyer applied for shortlisted names for interview which was approved by Asylum Office. This was their response: Please note that by choosing to be added to this list, you agree to be contacted by our office within 24 hours of the interview and you agree to waive the 21 day notification requirement. You also agree to notify your attorney that you have been added to this list. Finally, you agree to appear for an interview when contacted, and understand that if you are unavailable at that time, you will be removed from the short-notice list..... Please does anyone got info on how this work. Waiting period and notifications period.

This means that if you are on the short list, the asylum office may call you and ask you to appear for the interview on a short notice (maybe only one day in advance) and you must be ready if you agree to this. I am probably going to do this thing soon

What was your original location that they are not sending officers to?

There are new laws coming.

Pursuant to the final rule, individuals can be barred from asylum based on even minor legal involvement. In particular, the final rule bars from asylum individuals with convictions related to
  • Unlawful reentry to the United States
  • Alien harboring or smuggling
  • Crimes that the adjudicator knows or has reason to believe were related to the activity of a criminal street gang
  • Offenses for driving while intoxicated or impaired where such impaired driving was the cause of serious bodily injury or death of another
  • A second or subsequent offense for driving while intoxicated or impaired
  • Crimes involving conduct amounting to a crime of stalking, child abuse, child neglect, or child abandonment, as well as various domestic violence-related offense. The final rule also bars individuals for whom the adjudicator knows or has reason to believe have engaged in battery or extreme cruelty within the context of domestic violence, irrespective of any conviction
  • Misdemeanor offenses related to the possession or use of false identification, the receipt of a public benefit, or possession of a controlled substance or paraphernalia, other than a single offense involving possession for one’s own use of 30 grams or less of marijuana
  • Any felony

The new rules are not retroactive and take effect in Novemeber, so if you had a prior, you are not affected.
 
I have been waiting for results since April 2018, and today uscis has changed the status of my file from "waiting for your application" to "waiting for a decision". Does anyone know the meaning of this?
