Hi. I had my interview on September 23rd. Also Chicago. Officer said they will mail the decision, but not when...
 
Yes I have it. Decision pending. It literally updated 2 hours after I finished my interview. Btw, I applied for asylum in 2016.
It seems to me that decision takes 2 weeks or 6+ months.
Hopefully, you'll get yours after 2 weeks.
Mine is pending 4 months already. Also applied a while ago (7 years ago).

The officer was very young, she mentioned that she has a supervisor, then probably she is not the one that makes final decision. So, I guess I'm looking at 6+. Has your status ever changed from "decision is pending" to "application is pending".

No. Mine stays "Decision is pending" from day 1.
 
Just a heads up. Mine took 2 weeks (Arlington). Stay in "Desicion is Pending" to "Waived fees for I765".

I got approved. Applied in February 2015.
My case status got changed to decision is pending after a week of my interview. It’s been two months still showing decision is pending.
 
Hi everyone,
If you are granted asylum do you have to pay a fee to file i485 ? I heard there is no fee for asylum seekers ?
Yes. You have to. Fees for Refugees are waived. However, you can apply for a waiver (If you really need to) by being able to demonstrate legitimate economical hardship.

OMG my lawyer should know this. He filed without any fee stating there is no fee. What will happen now?

I'm so sorry to hear that. But yes, your lawyer should know better. USCIS may reject the application because no fee was paid. That is just my guess, do not quote on that one. But demand answers to your lawyer. Your lawyer MUST know that.

This is from the current "USCIS Fee Schedule". There is NOT $0 fee for Asylees.

I also attached the "Fee Waiver" information.

Again, all that is available at USCIS website.

Hello everone! I had my asylum interview on july 9th, 2024. And today my status changed from decision pending to decision mailed that was in the morning. Now it shows:

On October 1, 2024, we received your case and waived the filing fee for your Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, . We mailed you a notice describing how we will process your case.
