BIA Response Time
Hello, i am in process of removal due to denied asylum and later dismissed appeal. Following with approved Prosecutorial Discretion for Joint motion with DHS/ICE. They filled with BIA on my behalf. Motion to reopen was received by BIA on 06/25/2024. How long it takes for the response on average? Could really take a whole year or longer as i saw someone said? Thank you.

Hi, I heard it takes anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 months. Btw how long did it take to hear back from ICE re joint motion request? And also which State was your case at?
Tamara DAug 7, 2024
@T T Thank you for responding! My case is in Miami, however right now is in Virginia. Ice took forever because my lawyer didn’t filed online properly and they didn’t want to respond since needs to be filed up to their expectations and there is no clear user guide how to do so. However once filed right way we got response in 2 months.

@T T @Avery Flo Hey it’s me again!😀 How long it took to receive termination letter from BIA in the mail?
John WayneSep 11, 2024
hey @Tamara D I’m in a similar boat as you. PD was sent last week and after we get a joint motion we will send it to BIA. Any advice you can give on the process would be greatly appreciated!

@Tamara D the letter from BIA said “case reopened and DISMISSED without prejudice”. Not sure whats the difference with “TERMINATED”
Tamara DSep 14, 2024
@Avery Flo Hi there! I received the letter in the mail in the meantime. It said the same”dismissed without prejudice”😀
Tamara DSep 14, 2024
@John Wayne Sorry i am so busy lately, i’ll reply tomorrow!
Tamara DSep 14, 2024
@John Wayne Hey there, it’s pretty much straightforward and more like formula. I would say sending PD was the trickiest for my lawyer, he was doing it wrong so many times. Once the eservice portal showed that documents were accepted it was a relief. It will take around 2 months for response from ICE and around 2 months for the BIA termination. Once you receive that termination letter from BIA you can adjust the status but you have to submit that letter with the rest of the documents. 🙌
John WayneSep 17, 2024
@Tamara D Yea that’s what I’ve been hearing. Hopefully everything will go smoothly and I’ll hear back soon
Tamara DSep 18, 2024
@John Wayne You will, no doubt! Good luck🙌

Hey Tamara, I have same question that my case shows terminated ont the website. does it mean they have closed my case?
Tamara DMar 15, 2025
@Aryan M Yes. You can apply for adjustment of status now.
Tamara DMar 15, 2025

thankyou, i did it

hi @Tamara D how long did it take for you to receive the termination letter from BIA?
Tamara DMay 6, 2025
@John Wayne i honestly can’t remember! had so much going on immigration wise lately- can’t pick up all the dates but i want to say like 2 weeks!
John WayneMay 6, 2025
@Tamara D no worries, thanks for your response. But as long as it says it was terminated by the BIA it means the removal order was closed correct?
Tamara DMay 7, 2025
@John Wayne Yes! Although the letter in hands is what you want! When did they granted PD? Was it Trump administration?
John WayneMay 7, 2025
@Tamara D I got PD right before trump came into office. I had requested PD months before but luckily it was granted before trump came in
