Q: how long does it take to receive final order if automated info system says the judge granted relief?
Because of a missing document the judge couldn’t make an immediate decision at my removal hearing. I mailed the document next day, and about 2 weeks later, I received a copy of the letter ice sent to the judge indicating they received and accepted the document and waive their right to appeal. Then 2 months passed I didn’t get anything. When i call the doj info number and entered my alien number, the computer said the judge granted the relief 2 weeks after the ice’s letter. It’s been now 3 months since the judge granted relief but i still don’t have the final order and without it I cannot make an appointment with Uscis. What else can i do besides sitting and waiting and what is the hold up?
A: You can go to the clerk's office and ask for judge's ruling.

A: The immigration court that granted you relief will be able to provide you with a copy of the judge’s order. You should contact the clerk of the court that has jurisdiction for your case matter.
