What is asylum, and who qualifies for it?
Asylum is a form of protection granted to individuals who have fled their home country due to persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. To qualify, you must demonstrate a credible fear of persecution if you return to your home country.
To apply for asylum in the U.S., you must file Form I-589, Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal, within one year of your arrival. It's crucial to provide detailed information about your situation and any evidence supporting your claim.
If your asylum application is denied, you may appeal the decision or apply for other forms of relief. You might also be placed in removal proceedings, where you can present your case to an immigration judge.
Yes, you can apply for an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) 150 days after submitting your asylum application. If approved, you can legally work in the U.S. while your asylum case is pending.
Yes, you can include your spouse and any unmarried children under 21 in your asylum application. If your asylum application is approved, they may also be granted asylum.
The asylum process can vary in length, taking anywhere from several months to several years, depending on factors such as case complexity, backlog, and whether your case goes to court.
Once granted asylum, you can live and work in the U.S. legally. After one year, you can apply for a green card (permanent residency), and after five years as a permanent resident, you may be eligible to apply for U.S. citizenship.
