Waiting for refugee | Pridecord | Page 1

I'm so fucking tired and scared right now. I've been submitted my unchr asylum application back in November 2025 (got the confirmation ID and everything), but it's been months and still nothing
no interview scheduled, no update, just silence, except when I called the hotline and they basically gaslit me saying it's only for war refugees (even though their own site says persecution based on gender identity counts).
I'm a trans girl in Indonesia, brown skinned, looking 'too manly' to some people here, and my own dad (military guy, Pelda rank) ||beat me with wood|| over Hello Kitty pajamas, when I ran away from home and rent cheap apartments, he tracked me down, busted the door at dawn, ||kicked my head|| and dragged me back in his duty car. That was 2024, and the trauma hasn't gone away. I ran once, but I'm still not fully safe, still in the same area, still at risk if he finds out my identity again
Every day feels like waiting for the next hit while this process drags on forever.
UNHCR says registration interviews can take 'several months' due to backlogs (high volume of requests), and then RSD (the real decision interview) could be even longer they try for 6-12 months after that interview for a decision, but often it's more because not everyone gets prioritized unless super urgent. Resettlement to a safe country? Could be years total. Some people wait forever in this transit hell with no work rights, no real protection, just limbo.
I know my case fits, family violence over my trans identity, no state protection here, well-founded fear
but the waiting is killing me mentally. I'm unsafe RIGHT NOW, living/surviving near the person who hurt me, and the system moves like molasses.
Does someone had this experience or mind sharing another route asylum?
Please.
