Greencards > Asylum On occasion, we encounter a physician/scientist who has fled his/her home country due to a well-founded fear of persecution. The asylum process is aimed at providing that individual with the ability to remain in the U.S. permanently, if he/she can establish persecution in his/her home country plus a likelihood that such persecution would continue should a return to the home country be mandated. The U.S. Immigration Service does a good job explaining the asylum process. Please refer to the following web link: Frequently Asked Questions About Asylum Please contact our office with specific questions about your particular situation. Please keep in mind that an application for asylum almost always need to be filed within one year of initial admission to the U.S.
