Waiting Asylum decision

I had my interview at Newark as well on June 30 and is showed decision pending since then. On August 1st, it updated to you completed your interview and it updated application is pending on the same day.
 
Yes, they did approve my application.
It's not guarantee, but I think most people that wait for prolonged time received an approval.
You can read through this thread to see timelines of other people. You can even find cases from the same office that processed your case.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask here or in DM.
i agree with f4n1us. the more you wait the higher chances for you to get approved. i am talking about the Newark Office. idk the others.

The middle of 2015 app submitted.
The last week of April 2025 interviewed, decision is pending on the day. status never changed until today.
8-22, 2025 fee waived.
did not ask shortlist
did not sue
did not ask decision status
no Mandamus
good luck everyone.
congrats. i guess i am, now, convinced that if the old filers' decisions take longer than 2.5 months, it's almost an approval.

Ok will leave them then but I already made an inquiry today via Emma chat box and received that
I was told go back to pick up decision after two weeks but 1 day before the pick up day AO called me said result is not ready. the result will be shipped to my address once ready. I know the feeling when you are waiting the result, it's hard! I googled a lots of threads.

If results cannot be obtained within two weeks, most people will need to wait 2 to 8 months. It depends on each case and cannot be predicted precisely.

only one person in this thread waited 1 year then file FOIA. The FOIA shows AO Made decision after about two weeks but no one to shipped it out. This situation is very rare.

in the end, I do not think email or call can expedite to get the result.
good luck for everyone again.

I have been waiting for 7 months and 10 days for my asylum decision I already made two inquiries the most recent one just last week but I still haven’t received any update from the Chicago asylum office The long wait is very difficult and I am wondering if others are facing the same delays
 
Same here. Had interview in Jan 2025 with Chicago asylum office but no decision yet

We are really in the same situation I also had my interview in January and still no decision Did you make any inquiry or ask your attorney about it ? Do you have any information?

I asked my attorney and he advised to just wait. With the current immigration climate, I will just wait and not push anything
