Worried that applying for asylum will hurt your tourist status or pending student visa? In most cases, it won’t. You don’t have to withdraw your change of status request, and your current status isn’t automatically lost. 🛂 While it’s rare, there is a possibility that a pending status change could be denied because of an asylum application — but the vast majority of applicants are unaffected. Knowing the risk means you can make an informed decision. ⚖️ Asylum also comes with real benefits. After six months, you become eligible for a work permit — allowing you to work legally and attend any school in the country. If you’ve experienced persecution like FGM, asylum may be the path that helps you reach your immigration goals. 🌿 For help with your asylum case, send the word “CONSULT” to me in a direct message.
