If you have claimed asylum before and have been refused, you cannot simply make another asylum claim. You need to go through a further submissions process in order for the Home Office to consider whether your case merits re-examination. This will involve attending the Home Office in person to provide your submissions and waits for these appointments can be lengthy.
We offer a weekly drop-in for those who have been refused asylum to see if we can assist with their cases and offer legal aid to those who may be eligible.
Fresh claims require fresh evidence! You will need to show that there is new evidence or there is evidence that wasn’t available to you before that is now. Sometimes it might be necessary to take further steps and have evidence verified by independent experts.
Work of this nature is complex and slow. It involves re-evaluating the asylum claim that was made before, looking at its weaknesses and seeing what can be done to put you in a stronger position.
