I am a Syrian citizen whose application for asylum case has been pending for a few years now. On January 2015, I got married to a US citizen and obtained a Green Card on July 2017. I just received a notification that my asylum interview has been scheduled for next month, and I am not sure how to proceed.
a) Should I go and let them know that I am withdrawing my application?
b) Should I just notify them in writing that I am dropping my application?
c) Should I proceed with the interview?
I am worried that if I were to withdraw my application, it would raise suspicion as to the bona fide nature of my marriage. It is a legitimate marriage: we own property together, we file taxes together, our finances are shared and we are expecting our first baby in 2 months.
I am also afraid this will be problematic when I am applying for citizenship in 2 years.
I am also worried that if I were to go to the interview and my case gets denied, my Green Card would be jeopardized.
