Question

I appealed to BIA 1 year an 7 months ago, my case is asylum.. do you know how long does it usually take? seem my friends were only one year.. thank you

Answer

That seems like an awfully long time, Bia decisions are typically within one year. I would call the clerk at the BIA, to see whether they can confirm anything about whether your matter has been adjudicated.
