Hi. My refugee hearing was held on January 6, 2025. At the end of the hearing, the Board Member stated that she needed more time to review the evidence and that she would issue a written decision.
During the hearing, the Board Member raised concerns about one FIR and an affidavit. I answered all questions clearly, and my lawyer also made detailed submissions for about 30 minutes at the end of the hearing.
I would like to understand what I should expect at this stage. Does a reserved written decision usually indicate a positive or negative outcome?
