2 Questions Answered
Q. I won my asylum case and i submitted for my greencard this year I wanna get the travel document , I'm just confused.
A: If you have not received yet your permanent resident status ("green card"), you should choose option #2 "I now hold US refugee or asylee status , and I am applying for a refugee travel document" if you are applying for travel document.
Q. Can EAD clock stops because of covid-19
A: No. EAD clock does not stop because of covid-19. If you applied for asylum at least 150 days ago and still have not received an initial decision on your asylum application, you can file form I-765 and supporting documents with USCIS to request your Employment Authorization Document (EAD).
