YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSilence during your asylum interview is completely normal — and it can feel unbearable. The officer may be typing, taking notes, or just thinking. That pause doesn’t mean something is wrong. 🤫 The instinct is to fill that silence with words. Resist it. Anything you say when you’re not answering a question is a risk you don’t need to take. 🛑 Answer what’s asked, then stop. Wait. Let the silence sit there, as uncomfortable as it feels. That discipline can protect your case in ways you might not realize. ⏳ For help with your asylum case, send me the word “CONSULT” in a direct message.
