What is the process for filing an asylum application?

The process for filing for asylum in New Hampshire is similar to the national process used in the U.S. There are a few steps involved in filing an asylum application. First, the applicant must submit an I-589 form, or “Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal,” which can be found online or at the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) office. This form includes a detailed list of information and documents the applicant must submit in order to be considered for asylum. This includes information about their identity, nationality, background, why they are applying for asylum, and any possible claims of persecution. Once the form has been submitted, the USCIS will review the application and decide whether it meets the criteria for asylum. If this is successful, the applicant will be scheduled for an interview with an asylum officer. During this interview the applicant will be questioned about the details of their application, as well as their reasons for seeking asylum. This interview will determine whether the applicant is eligible for asylum or not. If the application is approved, the applicant will receive a notice of decision granting them asylum. However, if the application is denied, the applicant will have the chance to appeal the decision. Ultimately, asylum is granted to applicants who can prove they have been persecuted or fear persecution due to their race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular group. It is important to understand the process of filing an asylum application in order to have the best chances of success.

El proceso de solicitar el asilo comienza con la presentación de una solicitud de asilo. Es importante que la persona que solicita el asilo solicite lo antes posible. Primero, necesitas una consulta con un abogado. El abogado te asesorará sobre los requisitos para poder presentar la solicitud y te guiará a través del proceso completo. El abogado también puede ayudarte a preparar documentos relacionados con tu solicitud, como una radiografía de tu estado de salud y un formulario de solicitud. Después de presentar su formulario de solicitud, el solicitante será asignado a una entrevista con un oficial de inmigración. Esta entrevista se usa para determinar si el solicitante califica para el asilo. El oficial de inmigración puede hacer preguntas sobre la solicitud, la situación en el país de origen del solicitante, la identidad del solicitante y la relación con el resto de la familia. Después de completar la entrevista, el oficial de inmigración decidirá si concederán el asilo o no. Si el oficial de inmigración decide negar la solicitud, debe dar una explicación por escrito de por qué fue negada. Si el oficial de inmigración concede el asilo, el solicitante recibirá un documento de asilo emitido por el gobierno federal. Esto le permite residir legalmente en Estados Unidos.
