case administratively closed

Hi! I submitted my asylum documentation in 2020, I have not had my first hearing, I have no judge, no deportation, absolutely nothing. I made a motion in 2022 but I never got a response. My lawyer says it's because I don't have a date or an assigned judge. I got married in 2021, I already have my I130 approval but my I485 was administratively closed, I still don't have anything about my I765, it just says that it is being actively reviewed. If anyone went through or is going through something similar, it is possible that you could advise me or guide me on the right path I should follow, I will be reading all the messages, it would be a great help. Thank you 🙏🏻

Consular Processing

Hi, I have a question and I'm wondering if anyone has been in the same situation. I was ordered removed in absentia in 2005. I got married to an US Citizen, and had my I-130 approved in 2020. I filed a MTR in May of 2021, it was granted. I went back to court in August of 2021 and go my case administratively closed. That way I could proceed with my I-601a. My question is, will I have the 5 year bar for having an in absentia order? I am not sure if my removal order was rescinded. My MTR was granted "sua sponte".
