Hi guys,
i managed to go through all post from 2021 up until now. They have been very helpful and I've gained a lot of insight so thanks to everyone.
So great to have a forum like this especially for people like me who have no one talk to.
Here's my story

Region: Africa
Office: Chicago
Application filed: 09/27/2021
Notice Date: 10/01/2021
Biometrics Date: 10/27/2021
Interview Date: 02/16/2022
Interview Time: 2 hours 45 mins


So i had my interview today, my lawyer said it went well but i prefer to be a realist.
The interviewer was an elder man and he kept asking about my supporting evidence. I didn't have the originals cos they got lost in the post.
But the interviewer kept hammering down on 2 pieces of evidence he must have asked about them almost 3 times each. Even told my lawyer to have a look at them. I didn't faulter when answering but they fact he kept asking like he was trying to get me to make a mistake seemed like a bad sign. He had highlighted them prior to the interview starting. I'd like to stay positive though

Edit: Also, i have to submit an extra sworn affidavit from my lawyer in my home country and witness which I plan to do in the next few days.

When i try to add my paper file case so i can see my history i get "We cannot find your case" (see attachment)
but when i called the 800 number the male robot says "141 days and my ead clock is running"
Also it shows decision is pending (see attachment)
Finally, travel history is still up.
Please when can i apply for work authorization. I'm an ASAP member.
Any input is welcome.
Thank you all in advance

Could you tell me pls, did you ever after interview filed online case inquiry by asking them, why it taking long to issue decision? My interview was in mid December. Still waiting for decisions. Already 60 days passed. Did yo ever send email to your asylum office regarding decision? If yes, after how many months you send email?
Also I want to ask, how did you expedite your decision?

Man long story short, no inquiries no congressmen nothing gonna fast up the decision as the USCIS use different agencies for the security check and once your background check released then they will send you either approval or denial so any attempt to fast up a decision is just a waste of time

So if security check will delay decisions, then why before uscis used to issue decision after 2 weeks? So it means they used to issue decision before even security check done. Remember before people used to go to the office after 2 weeks.

Man they will never give u decision before security check get dine first! I don’t care about what was the past but now security checks could take days to years !!! It depends on the person but u can try to get the decision faster but as I mentioned it’s just a waste of time and you won’t get a decision until they want to give u decision! When did you apply for asylum?

I wish u all the best man but you must have patience u see people were waiting 5-6 years for interview an others 3 years for decision! And you complaining or wanna expedite and you only applied 1 year and 6 months ago!!! For real??? Come on man ! I wouldn’t blame the USCIS if they make anyone applied after 208 to wait for another 3-4 years so they finish the people applied in 2015-2018 first! That’s the justice

Yea my man, I am not so worried, coz I understand how hard to work in uscis, how they are overloaded with cases! I am just thankful that they called me for interview. I wanted ask you, AO took some original documents, and didn’t give me back, is that back sign or what? Interview passed smooth, but Ao didn’t ask everything from my case. Interview passed in the style such: “quick question - quick response”. There wasn’t a chance to long talk, or long answer. AO was quickly jumping from one place to another. But I managed to answer to each question.
before interview honestly, I was expecting the interview, where I will be able, to seat and fully explain my store. but after jnterview I would name my interview - “answer to 100 questions in one minute”. It was honestly like that. Don’t know what to expect. After interview, I was telling to myself that AO didn’t ask eeeeeveryrhing, it means, probably after Supervisor review they gonna call me for 2nd interview. Still in doubt. What do you think about my interview according what I said?

Honestly i think you did good from what you wrote! Same happened with me hmm the interview lasted like 50-60 mins and he took the original documents and asked me some questions and that’s it hmm most likely the officer read your story well before your interview so no worries but I always advice people to give it 50%_50% chance for approval or referral!! Most of the people that thought they will get approval ended up in the immigration court so just live ur life and let it go to where it goes

Hi All,
I came to US with F1 visa together with my wife and infant daughter, I filed I-589 ti Vermont Service Center on Jan 22, 2022. But I still not received any mail or receipts from USCIS.
I would like to ask a few question here :
1 - I just drop out from school, what will happen if I don't received a receipts and A number ?
2 - Is there a way that we can't purchase insurance for baby, even if I don't have A number and receipts ?

Thank you so much !

You will get receipt number BUT pls don’t mess ur student visa specially with a baby. I know paying tution is real pain , option is go to some vocational/ language school either for ur self or wife. For baby health insurance try CHIPS , state insurance mandatory for kids under 16 yrs old or any other state insurance for kids.

remember how we use to fret about getting an interview, am still waiting on mine, like u say life goes on
 
HEY guys, its been 10 months since i had my interview and 2 weeks after the interview my case status changed from decision is pending to application is pending and after 8 months of waiting again 2 months ago it changed back to decision is pending and i am still waiting. Do you have any idea what is happening?
 
Is anyone else on this forum is not able to check the EAD clock status calling the USCIS number after 8:00 pm or I'm the only one who is not able to check that?
