suggestion on further action
My time line:
Asylum case approved by San Francisco Immigration judge on Jan 3, 2024
mailed I485 form exactly after 1 year- Jan 3, 2025
i485 receipt date Jan 8, 2025.
It has been exactly 17 months(yesterday) since USCIS received my greencard application.
I actively read all the Asylum related posts in this community. One thing I have seen is greencard issuance right now is completely random. Seen people waiting for 3-5 years or more and also seen people getting approved in less than 15 months(who applied for GC in less than 1 year after asylum case approval).
I’ve seen WOM giving positive results to some while it getting dismissed for others.
Here I am seeking suggestions from you guys on how I should go about my application. I know there is no definitive answer. I am thinking of doing an inquiry through the local congressman’s office and then do a WOM. One strong point for me is that I waited the 1 year mark before applying for Green card so my total time since Asylum approval is 29 months (17+12).
I know 17 months vs 18 months does not make any significant difference. but do you think I should wait 1 more month to do the congressman inquiry just for the sake of it?
I am from one of the 75 countries but not from the 39 countries list.
Based on an approved asylum application [(a)(5)]
