Has anyone received their asylum green card approval since December?
Hi everyone,
I’m wondering if anyone with an asylum-based green card application has gotten approved recently, especially since December. My case has been pending for over a year and is still stuck on “Case Was Updated To Show Fingerprints.”
With the new restrictions being discussed under the Trump administration, I’m also getting worried about whether any upcoming executive orders or policy changes could slow down or affect pending asylum green card applications.
So I’d like to ask:
1. Has anyone seen approvals for asylum-based green cards in December?
2. Could the new administration’s immigration actions affect pending asylee I-485 cases?
3. Has anyone received RFEs, interview notices, or any updates recently?
Any experiences or timelines would really help. Thanks in advance!

green card approved
Hello Vawa family, I thank our Heavenly Father because I had my interview today and everything went wonderfully. It was so quick, it only lasted 13 minutes, and a few hours later I was approved. The best Christmas gift I could have asked for. We must pray a lot, and I assure you that God's timing is perfect. Thank you all for your comments; your stories give strength and encouragement to others. Thank you, God, for everything. I wish you all the best; you will soon receive the wonderful news of your approval. My journey has come to an end.

transferred to Chicago Fo
I asked Emma in April and she said that my case had been transferred to Chicago Fo which is non-local Fo. Later, I asked twice and got the same answer. There has been no update so far. Is Chicago FO one of the slowest FOs?

I got an RFE after the interview
I went to the Tampa Field interview on October 28 and the interview was so smooth and the officer was super nice . He just asked us basic questions about our daily life and then we moved into the yes and no Questions.
It turned out that way were missing My wife ex divorce paper. We submitted the evidence online three days later And then it says online that they received the evidence and I’ve been waiting since then

Received interview notice for I-485 application.
I just received an interview notice for my I-485 application (scheduled for December 18).
I’m nervous and scared at the same time.
I had my I-130 interview last year on October 10, and it was approved on the spot after 3 years of filing and waiting.
In March 2025, I received an RFE for my I-485 and responded 1 month later, in April, but I never heard back from them.
I just received a letter in the mail from USCIS today stating:
Please come to the office shown below at the time and place indicated in connection with an official matter.
