Waiting Asylum decision

That means nothing unless you see decision mailed without seeing fees were waived it’s bad sign and if you see fees were waived before decision is mailed that is a good sign
Gotcha! Thank you. Because i read few replies says if the clock count stops on particular day but robot says running means a bad sign.
 
But if she got referred to court the clock wont stop please mention to her the 2 options so she gets aware of all the options available
No it’s not a bad sign, the clock is running because your decision is pending and once your case is approved the clock will stop running.
Hopefully you will get approval which office did you get your interview? Yeah probably after getting approval the clock will stop and the only way to find out about approval or the other way is to always check your case status once you find fees were waived that means approval again i wish you all the best
Hopefully, Thank you very much for the information. In Arlington office, do you have any idea about their decision timing process? I applied in 2016 so It was very long waiting time to get interviewed, it's so hard to staying with a lot of stress about the outcome

Don’t stress yourself cause it could take weeks or months and some folks here are waiting for their decision since 1-3 years so forget about it and live your life

Hello, I have a pending asylum case since 08/2021 and I have an ead (c3) that expires in December, can I apply for an ead (c8) in December to avoid gap? What do you guys suggest me?

I see, thank you. its a long waiting. Did your officer told you that we will mail your result after 2-3 weeks???
And did you call to USCIS to check your clock status after working hours?

Yes, the AO said the decision would be mailed in 2 weeks, but the lawyer said after the interview that it would probably be closer to 3-6 months and even that is just her guess from some of the other cases on her workload. We will call the phone line once or twice a week after hours and the clock has not stopped, but the status still shows as "decision is pending" online (never saw "application is pending" for what it is worth) so we are not too worried right now. Just trying to continue with our lives and deal with the decision when it is made - obviously, we are hoping for an approval though!

Hi,
So when you check your clock, is it running? Also the days are correct or freez on one particular day?

What did your attorney tell ya after the interview? Attorneys kinda see the officer decision in their eyes it’s not a guarantee but most likely their guesses are correct

Yes, the clock is still running and the days seem correct.

Our lawyer said he did well in the interview and answered all the questions clearly. It ran longer than they had anticipated, 3 hours, and she tells us we just have to wait right now and hope for the best. Adopt a "no news is good news" kind of mindset.

My ead days stuck on 15 days after interview day, but it says clock running. Anyone has any clue ? Decision is pending though!

I’m in the same boat, yes lets do our lives and hoping for the best
 
Yes, he came with me, is it good?
Your attorney should have known how did you do at the interview i mean no body knows the decision as sometimes the officer plan to give you approval but then later after days they change their minds and vice versa but most likely the attorneys get the feeling how does the officer think from the way she/he looks at you and the kind of questions they ask! Face reactions too are so important but that’s not a guarantee tho but most likely the attorneys feel how is the decision gonna be the minute the officer finish the interview!
