I need help with writing the statements in my application
A: You need to show that you were persecuted or have a fear of persecution in your home country due to your race, religion, nationality, social group or political opinion. Reach out directly to an immigration attorney for assistance as this is a public forum.
A: Crafting a persuasive asylum statement is vital to the success of an application. Begin by clearly outlining the specific reasons you fear persecution in your home country. Use detailed, factual events to support your claim, being as precise about dates, locations, and persons involved as possible. Highlight any past persecution or harm you've suffered, and demonstrate a well-founded fear of future persecution. Corroborate your statement with any available evidence, such as news articles, medical records, or witness testimonies. Lastly, ensure the narrative remains consistent with other portions of your application and be prepared to speak confidently about its contents during any interviews or hearings.
