This is a step-by-step guide to help you file your application as efficiently and quickly as possible.

There is a difference between Asylum and Refugee Status:

  • Asylum: Individuals already physically present in the US may apply for asylum, provided they meet the definition of a refugee and are not barred by law from applying for or being granted asylum.
  • Refugee: A refugee is a person who is unable or unwilling to return to his or her native country due to a well-founded fear of persecution or because the person’s life or freedom would be threatened. To apply for refugee status, the applicant must be physically located outside the United States.


Important
: One year after legally being granted asylum or refugee status in the United States, the applicant may apply for a Green Card and eventually for United States Citizenship.
