It varies by embassy and by case, and we too have seen delays at this stage. You can try emailing the embassy to inquire, or maybe contact your Congress person for help. Whether these things will make it faster, I do not know, but you can try. Take care, Jason

I don’t know why you need biometrics if you have your decision, but it could just be how things are being processed. If they want you to go, you should go. Good luck with the decision. Take care, Jason

Hi Jason, hope you r doing good. Today I got another letter from USCIS to go for bio metrics on next day after picking up my decision next week. Is it normal or positive sign ?
Thanks for your quick reply.

Sometimes, they do ask more questions at these pick-ups, but they really should not do that unless you have your lawyer present. However, in the very large majority of cases, you just pick up the decision and that is it. Take care, Jason

Normally, they would just send you the decision; I have not heard about getting a letter to come to the office in two weeks. We never go to these, as the only purpose is (or should be) to get the decision – there is nothing for the lawyer to do. If you are worried because the procedure is different, you can certain bring a lawyer. It may just be that your asylum office is different than mine, and I doubt there is cause for concern from that letter. Hopefully, it will be a good decision. Take care, Jason

I do not know why the Service Center should be involved in your asylum case. I recommend you contact the local asylum office directly and tell them that your interview was postponed, and then ask for a status update. You can find their contact info if you follow the link at right called Asylum Office Locator. Take care, Jason

My asylum case has been pending for more than two years.
I had applied for TPS as well as I qualified for that. My interview for asylum did get scheduled for dec 2016, but I received another notice after five days that it got postponed until further notice. Today i went to my local service center and found out that my case got transferred from sfo to LN Nebraska without any notice and reason. However they notified me that I will hear from them by this April 2017. I’m hopeful yet concerned as they give me similar answer, an expected date after few months. Is there anything I could do at this point to schedule an interview date sooner?
Thank you.
Rs
