US Asylum Service

Understanding Asylum Eligibility

Are you seeking US Asylum in Tukwila or the Greater Seattle area? Crescent Law is here to help. Led by attorney Matty Luna, we provide compassionate guidance through the asylum process. Facing deportation or fleeing persecution can be overwhelming. We offer support every step of the way.

To be eligible for asylum, you must show a well-founded fear of persecution in your home country. This persecution must be based on one of these grounds:

• Race
• Religion
• Nationality
• Political opinion
• Membership in a particular social group

You can apply for asylum if you are physically present in the United States. If granted, you may stay in the country, work legally, and include your spouse and children who are also here.
