@saib saib People who filed last year February 2023 are still waiting for the approval. But in few cases, they approved the i-485 in less than a year . Good luck

huge mistake you will get denied

@Lumi l Depends, some people got lucky. But this is kind of lottery.

Lumi why you said that you’re wrong nothing happen with me please don’t scare the people

don’t worried to much my asylum was granted 2016 in i just i applied February 22 for permanent residence

g a!! can u please share your process!

@Lumi l you are completely wrong. You don't have to wait a year now

@j l the new law doesn't say you have right to apply right away this I lie,he want to spend couple thousand and refused good for him.

huge mistake! they will deny it as you don’t meet the 1 year requirement! I understand that you thought while waiting I will reach that year.. but no, they will look at your filing data vs asylum granted date.. how did your lawyer even let you apply?

@Lumi I agree with you, I know 2 people personally who were denied just because they I-485 filing date was after 10 months of asylum granted date. They don’t even try to adjust the date but denied and refered my friends to file a new I-485 application.Both cases happened in Sept 2022.

There is no “new law”, do not misinform people. From USCIS website. In order to be eligible for a Green Card as an asylee, you must meet the following requirements: 1.You properly file Form I-485, Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status; 2.You are physically present in the United States when you file your Form I-485; 3. You have been physically present in the United States for at least 1 year after you were granted asylum; 4. You continue to meet the definition of a refugee (for example, a principal asylee), or to be the spouse or child of a refugee (for example, a derivative asylee); 5. Your grant of asylum has not been terminated; and some more requirements…

@FD GC that's correct! I don't understand why they risk everything for waiting a year it's not a big deal.

As my lawyer said, starting Feb 2023 you don’t have to wait one year to apply for green card. and he has thousands of asylum cases on his hand, I don’t think he will misguide his clients.

i also got approved last march 2023, but my lawyer didn't let me apply for I485 before fulfilling 1 year of granted asylum. i waited a year and then I applied
