Withholding Of Removal

Oakland Withholding Of Removal Lawyers

Ineligible For Asylum? This May Be An Option.

If you are ineligible for asylum (for example, if you overstayed the one-year filing deadline for asylum and you don’t qualify for one of the deadline exceptions), but if you can still show a high likelihood of danger and persecution on account of one of the five reasons listed above, you may still qualify for withholding of removal – a separate form of relief from deportation. 

What Are The Benefits?

If you are granted withholding of removal, then you will be able to stay in the United States, and the government cannot deport you back to your country. If you win, you will be eligible for work authorization. It is similar to asylum, however, it is less desirable. Unlike asylum, those who win withholding are not eligible for green cards, are not eligible to petition for their relatives, and do not have a direct path to U.S. citizenship.

How To Qualify For Withholding Of Removal

To be eligible for withholding you must show that it is “more likely than not” that your “life or freedom would be threatened” in your home country “on account of” your race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
