Asylum
Applicants for Asylum
In order to qualify for asylum, you must establish that you
are a refugee who is unable or unwilling to return to his or her country of
nationality, because of prosecution or a well founded fear of persecution on
account of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social
group, or political opinion. You must submit an application for asylum within one
year of arriving in the United States. Please call our office as soon as
possible for more information.
