Push notification in background (PHP)

Question

Currently I am using APNS PHP for push notification. The problem is I can't respond to the client after it has finished the process and I need to wait until apple responds for the push notification.

I don't want to wait for the push notification; I want to make the push notification in a background process or other thread. Is this possible?

I found the other solution in stackoverflow; some advise one to use a cron job to make it run in the background. But I don't prefer this way. Is there some other solution?

You can make it asynchronous - put it in queue.

Does Apple return anything for Push? I've been working with APNS for years and never got any response, even after they extended API with error codes.
