wait for decision
My asylum application was filed on December 6, 2025. * I completed my first asylum interview on January 28, 2026. * I contacted the Arlington Asylum Office in June 2026 and received a response that I understood to indicate that a decision was near. * I received three USCIS “action taken” email notifications on September 5, 2026, without seeing a new official decision in my Documents section. * My USCIS case history continued to display “You completed your interview with USCIS” and “Application is pending.” * My backend JSON showed “review returned” and later “needs reinterview.” * I had not received an official notice confirming a second interview or a final asylum decision. My main concern is the discrepancy between my official USCIS case history and the internal information appearing in the backend JSON. My official case history indicates that I completed my interview and that my application remains pending. Meanwhile, the backend information contains the labels “review returned” and “needs reinterview.” I would like to understand whether my case is still undergoing supervisory review, whether it has been returned for additional processing, or whether USCIS is considering scheduling another interview. Any help will be appreciated

EB-3 Unskilled I-485 Denied Due to Medical Error
Hi everyone! I’m hoping someone has been through something similar. I applied for my green card through EB-3 Unskilled (Other Workers). My priority date is February 2022. Here’s my timeline: * August 2026: USCIS received my I-693 RFE response. * September 8th 2026: My I-485 was denied because the civil surgeon forgot to check the polio vaccination boxes. * September 15: USCIS received a corrected I-693 and a signed letter from the doctor acknowledging his mistake (I had until Sep 16 to reply to the RFE). * After September 15: My online status changed from “Denied” back to “RFE Response Received,” saying USCIS had begun working on my case again. * September 26: My status changed to “Case Required USCIS To Send A Notice.” The letter turned out to be an informational FBI biometrics privacy notice. * October: My attorneys prepared an I-290B Motion to Reopen since we haven’t received formal confirmation that the case was reopened. My biggest concern is my EAD. I had to stop working after the denial and have been on unpaid leave while waiting for USCIS. Has anyone experienced something similar? Does the status changing back to “RFE Response Received” mean my I-485 could be pending again? And for those who filed an I-290B, how long did it take to reopen your case and get your work authorization back? I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences. Thank you!
