Types of Asylum Applications

Affirmative Asylum

If you’re in the U.S. legally, you can file for asylum by submitting Form I-589. You need to apply within one year of arriving unless you have special circumstances. The process includes an interview with an asylum officer who will review your story and decide your case.

Defensive Asylum

If you’re in removal proceedings, you can still ask for asylum as a defense. These cases go before an immigration judge and need extra care in preparing your evidence and testimony. We know how to build a strong defense for you in court.

Building a Strong Asylum Case

• Personal statement details
• Country condition reports
• Witness statements
• News articles and photos
• Medical or police records

Working with experienced Bronx asylum attorneys helps you tell your story clearly. We know what evidence matters most and how to explain your situation to immigration officials in a way that makes sense.

What to Expect During Processing

Most asylum cases take months or even years to finish. While you wait, you may qualify for a work permit after 150 days. Our immigration team keeps track of all the important dates and deadlines so you don’t miss a thing.

Rights While Seeking Asylum

Asylum applicants can stay in the U.S. while their case is pending. You can include your spouse and children under 21 in your application. After approval, many people move forward to permanent residence through green cards. We make sure you understand your rights and options at every stage.
