Solicitarea azilului în Regatul Unit
Ghid pas cu pas pentru solicitarea azilului.
Prezentare generală
If you are in the UK and fear persecution in your home country, you can apply for asylum. The UK is obliged under the 1951 Refugee Convention to consider asylum claims. The Home Office processes claims, and decisions can be appealed to the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber). Asylum seekers may receive housing and financial support while their claim is being processed.
Proces pas cu pas
Register Your Claim
You must claim asylum as soon as reasonably practicable after arriving in the UK. You can register in person at the Asylum Intake Unit in Croydon or at the port of entry.
Screening Interview
A Home Office official conducts a screening interview to record your personal details, travel route, and the general reasons for your claim. You may have an interpreter.
Receive Asylum Support (if needed)
If you are destitute, you can apply for asylum support: accommodation (usually dispersed accommodation outside London) and a weekly allowance.
Substantive Asylum Interview
A Home Office caseworker interviews you in detail about your reasons for claiming asylum. You should provide evidence supporting your claim. You can have a legal representative present.
Decision
The Home Office decides to grant refugee status (5 years' leave), humanitarian protection, or refuse the claim. You are notified in writing.
Appeal (if refused)
If refused, you can appeal to the First-tier Tribunal (Immigration and Asylum Chamber) within 14 days. The tribunal hears evidence and can overturn the Home Office decision.
Costuri
Avertismente importante
Claiming asylum late without good reason may damage your credibility.
