Granted 😭
After 9 years of waiting, I received a decision today that I was granted Asylum. I wanted to share so my story helps one of you out there to not lose heart despite current times. Brief timeline: Applied 04/2017 Interview 09/2025 Decision about two weeks later. DM me if you have specific questions. If there’s anything I can do to help, I’m happy to. Just don’t consider it as actual legal advice πŸ€“

@twinkling sand Hi! Congratulations β€” I finally got my interview scheduled too! My timeline is actually very similar to yours; I applied in March 2017 and just received my interview scheduling update. I wanted to ask β€” after your case was marked as β€œinterview scheduled,” how long did it take before you actually received the interview notice with the exact date?

@Gee T I actually got the mail before I even noticed online. But looking back in my emails, after the testing and interview notification I got via email, the actual notice came 8 days later in my mail.
