A person in the United Kingdom who is not a British national and who is in fear of returning home to their country of origin may be allowed to apply for the status of asylum or refugee. The Home Office considers refugee and asylum claims on a case by case basis and only grant permission to remain in the UK if they are satisfied you meet all the legal requirements and can prove you are genuinely a refugee. Scarsdale asylum and refugee claims solicitors are here to help you.
Asylum and Refugee Claims Solicitors Manchester
The laws for asylum and refugee claims stem from the 1951 Refugee Convention, which says that when someone has a well-founded fear of persecution if they return to their home country, because of race, political opinion, religion or nationality then they may be eligible to make an asylum claim. People who can seek protection in their home country are not eligible, so you must prove that the authorities in your country of origin cannot or will not protect you.
After you apply for asylum, you are interviewed by a representative of the British Home Office. They will look into your reasons for claiming asylum and collect evidence. They must be satisfied that you have a genuine fear of returning to your home country. Not only does the fear have to be genuine; they also must be satisfied, there is a good reason for you to fear going back. The Home Office representative then decides on your application and either grant permission to remain in the UK or refuses. You usually can appeal against a refusal to an Immigration Judge.
