Rescheduling of Asylum =interview



Dear IRENE:

This letter refers to your Form 1-589, Application =or Asylum and for Withholding of Removal, filed with U.S. =itizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

We received your correspondence dated 11/10/2017 requesting to =eschedule your asylum interview on 11/14/2017.

This was your first request to reschedule =our asylum interview. Because you established "good =ause" for your request to reschedule your asylum interview, we =re granting your request and will mail you a new interview appointment =otice in the near future. Repeated requests to reschedule are =iscouraged. Repeated reschedules place a significant burden on =he Asylum Office. The Asylum Office will not grant future =eschedule requests except where you establish "good cause."=Good cause is defined as a "reasonable excuse for being unable =o appear for an asylum interview." In reviewing whether there =s good cause to reschedule your interview, the Asylum Office considers =he facts and circumstances of each case individually. Repeated requests =o reschedule are discouraged and may affect the determination of good =ause.

## Employment Authorization:

If you applied for asylum on or after =anuary 4, 1995, you are subject to a 150-day waiting period before you =an apply for employment authorization, and an additional 30 days before =mployment authorization can be approved, for a total of 180 days. =he number of days a completed asylum application is considered pending =oes not include any delays requested or caused by you while your =pplication is pending with the Asylum Office or with an immigration =udge. See Title 8, Code of Federal =egulations section 208.7. =his time period during which your asylum

## Employment Authorization: (cont.)

application must be pending =ith USCIS and/or the Executive Office for Immigration Review before you =ay be granted an employment authorization document (EAD) is called the =E2$4180-day asylum EAD clock."

Delays=requested or caused by you while your application is pending with the =sylum Office may

include:

• a =equest to transfer your case to a new Asylum Office or interview =ocation, including when the transfer is based on a new address;

• a =equest to reschedule your interview for a later date;

• failure to appear at your interview or fingerprint =ppointment;

• failure to provide a competent interpreter at your =nterview;

• a =equest to provide additional evidence after your interview; and

• failure to receive and acknowledge your asylum decision in =erson (if required).

Your request to reschedule your interview is a delay =aused by you. We have stopped counting days towards your 180-day =sylum EAD clock as a result. Your 180-day asylum EAD clock will =esume when you appear for your rescheduled interview.

As of the date of this letter, =our asylum application was pending 874 days.

Sincerely,

For Susan Raufer
