I did everything without lawyer, but if you have a finances I advice you to hire an attorney which in future will represent you in Immigration Court if Asylum Office refer your case to judge. If you decide to do it by yourself - carefully read your NOID where Asylum Office (AO) explained for you why they want to deny your case and provide you explanation about why you thinking they wrong and sent it to them (file a rebuttal). Pretty much it what I have to say, because it's very hard to give you an advice, I don't know what kind of case do you have and why AO want to deny it. Good luck.

f1 student on opt
the main reason for the denial was inconsistency. meaning, on the interview, i said something which didn't match with the written story. it happened quite a lot of times. i happened because i was on pressure was nervous.
Hello utrendsetter,
The rebuttal - opportunity for you to explain everything, so go ahead and do it. In my case AO pointed me on 4 particular inconsistency and later in my rebuttal I explain everything. Good luck.
P.S. Looks like we both was interviewed in SF AO.

yup
yup, that's right. i gave my interview at San- Francisco office. i dunno how much inconsistency has occurred on your case but on mine, it was a lot. some of the mistakes were simple yet important one. mainly, it was because i didn't pay much attention on the story. i highly doubt my case will get approval but what to do? i have to at least try. anyways, i'll be in touch.

Hello utrendsetter,
All you have to do now is carefully read NOID and file a rebuttal, so go ahead and do it. Good luck. I cross my fingers for you.
Hi all,
I do not see any of my old friends Mr. Bird, Awatinasylum, Asylum and LadyLee, I know they had received everything already so perhaps they are not around anymore.
But hello Linuxca, I can see that you are from my country too (Venezuela) and your case was also processed through Miami's office so I dare to ask you, what receipt number did you use to check your status and get that answer? was it the Asylum application receipt or was it the EAD application? I have been waiting for more than 206 days already (almost 7 months) and I have not received anything yet; however I dared to passed by the asylum office yesterday and the person at the front desk told me in a very subtle way that I have been approved but he could not tell me when I am going to receive my documentation. I am in despair because I applied for my EAD 7 weeks ago and I have not received anything either and when I check the I-765 status remains in the same stage of " initial review". This is driving me crazy..
Congratulations for your approval and I appreciate your feedback.

I am sooo happy right now. However, I wanted to do benchmarking with you, how long does it take you to receive the final documents in your email after you saw this message?.I-589 Received: 28-Feb-11

Just checked my status on-line... It says
"we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I539 APPLICATION TO EXTEND OR CHANGE NONIMMIGRANT STATUS".
This is the other application which I filed for change of status from F2 (student dependent) to F1 (student). I am little relived now, but still waiting for my asylum application to get approved. I am also waiting for my initial EAD. Two days back I called USCIS and ask if I can request to get my EAD processed early? They gave me the long list of circumstances when I can request for the EAD early. I just wanted to share this with all.

You are welcome. Have you heard about your case yet? I know that you have sent inquiry about case. My advocate have inquired about my case status on 9/23/11. This is the second time we inquired about our case since our interview. We have not heard anything yet.
Asylum Interview : May 2, 2011
I-765 sent: September 7, 2011
I-765 Receipt Notice: September 16, 2011
EAD Received: not yet
Hello sagipisces,
There is no response for my inquiry so far and I'm not expecting any response from AO just because they are have a legal rights do not provide any information about you case unless they decided to do it. The main reason why I'm filled an inquiry was next - I change my address since I filled a rebuttal. Off course I notified USCIS about changing a residence by mailing letter with AR-11 to USCIS Virginia division and changing address though USCIS on-line system. But, how I found out later, if you have a deal with Asylum Office you should also notified them about it. So, in my inquiry I mention about changed address and by the way asked about my case. In general, main source of information for us still USCIS Costumer Service unless they use to tell you to contact local Asylum Office. Tomorrow I'm going to give them (USCIS Costumer Service) a call and ask about what is going on with my case. Good luck (to me and you and all of us).

Hi ugububu:
Thanks for sharing. Did you call USCIS Costumer Service? What they tell you? I have not yet heard about my case. Also, can I ask you what is your status right now?
