Process for Seeking Asylum

To apply for asylum in the United States, you must first be physically present in the country. Your application must be filed within one year of your arrival in the U.S. You must also prove that you have a well-founded fear of persecution based on your race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.

After you file your application, you will be scheduled for an interview with an asylum officer. During the interview, you will be asked questions about your reasons for seeking asylum and your experiences in your home country. You will also need to provide supporting documentation and evidence to prove your case.

If your application is denied, you may appeal the decision to an immigration judge. It is important to have experienced legal representation during this process to help you present your case in the best possible light.

About The Cuban Adjustment Act

The 1966 Cuban Adjustment Act (CAA) allows immediate family members of Cuban citizens or natives to apply for permanent residency a year after entry or parole into the U.S. This legislation, unique to Cubans, provides an expedited process for securing a green card, reflecting longstanding U.S. policy perspectives on Cuba.

The CAA provides a route distinct from the traditional asylum process. The CAA does not require applicants from Cuba to provide evidence of a well-founded fear of persecution in their home country, even though this is often a requirement for asylum cases. This greatly streamlines the procedure, because it is typically harder and takes longer to demonstrate fear of persecution.

If they fulfill the requirements, Cubans who choose to seek asylum may still do so, and doing so may be tactically advantageous. Seeking asylum may provide instant advantages, such as being able to work while their case is being reviewed. Asylum seekers may benefit greatly from the guidance of San Diego asylum attorneys, who can help applicants distinguish between applying under the CAA and requesting asylum. 

At San Diego Immigration Law Office, our immigration lawyers are knowledgeable with both procedures and may provide specialized advice to optimize legal advantages and guarantee adherence to all legal obligations. Working with seasoned attorneys can significantly increase the likelihood of a successful conclusion, whether via asylum or the Cuban Adjustment Act.
