An important note to everyone that plans to seek asylum:

[Please retoot for visibility]

Don't do asylum as the first thing, please consider immigration before asylum procedure, if you can. Asylum seekers face discrimination and various scrutiny, just because they reject the protection of their country by entering the procedure itself.

No matter where you flee from, you would face difficulty as an asylum seeker, be it inability to work, be it low government assistance, be it even lack of housing. It depends on where you flee, however you would still face difficulty, even if you have money set aside.

You would be asked to give out your passport, you would need to prove you are personally in danger of persecution. You would need a pretty strong case. You would be stuck in this gray status for months at best, for years at worst. You would also not be allowed to leave the country during all this.

FUR/HELP would be there to support you, however we nor anyone else can guarantee you a positive decision.
