Who Can Petition for Asylum?
Immigrants who have suffered past persecution or who fear future persecution in their country of origin, can petition for asylum in the U.S. Persecution can include violence, torture death threats, economic deprivation, detention, and more. Our lawyers can review the details of your situation and help you build your case to prove that the level of persecution you face warrants asylum.
U.S immigration law recognizes persecution based on the following:
Race
-
Nationality
-
Membership in a particular social group
-
Religion
-
Political opinion
The asylum process involves:
The U.S. asylum process can be be complicated to navigate and can require extensive documentation. Since every asylum case is unique, it is important that you work with an attorney to help ensure that your application includes all the necessary paperwork, and to help guide you through all the intricate procedures.
The asylum process involves:
-
Application: File your application with USCIS. Your application should include such items such as a form of identification, a copy of your passport, and a written affidavit of why asylum is necessary.
-
Interview: You must also undergo an interview with an asylum officer. During the interview, you will be asked questions about your background, reasons for asylum, and other questions relating to your application.
-
Asylum Office Decision: The asylum office will either grant you asylum or issue a denial. If you are been denied asylum, you have the option to appeal the decision.
