Asylum Claims

Those seeking refuge in the UK from persecution in their home country can become refugees after recognition by the Home Office of appeals to an immigration judge. This application protects these individuals by ensuring they are not forced to return home.

The process starts with the individual submitting a claim to the Home Office. This claim is then reviewed and if necessary, an interview is conducted to assess the credibility of the individual's story. If the claim is accepted, the individual is granted asylum and is allowed to stay in the UK. If the claim is rejected, the individual has the right to appeal the decision. Throughout the process, the individual may be required to provide supporting documentation and evidence of their situation. The process can take several months to complete and the individual may receive support from the government while they wait for a decision.

In order to be eligible you must meet these requirements:

• You must fear persecution in your home country based on race, religion, nationality or political opinion and fail to receive protection in your home country

• You should not have travelled from ‘a safe third country’ or come through the EU– this may result in your application not being considered
