    This video explains what asylum seekers can do if an immigration judge denies their asylum case in immigration court. It's possible to appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals ("BIA") but you must file the notice to appeal within 30 days of the immigration judge's decision. While an appeal is pending before the BIA, you cannot be deported.
    This video is for asylum seekers who had a case in immigration court. If you are seeking asylum with USCIS, that is a different process and this video does not apply to you. You can watch videos about seeking asylum with USCIS here: th-cam.com/play/PL845KO58lhKOannRoW0b0K42byIhNQrJT.html.
    If you are not sure if you have a case in immigration court, read this page to find out: help.asylumadvocacy.org/deciding-whether-to-apply-for-asylum-in-the-united-states/#process.

      Thank you for your question and for being part of ASAP’s community! If you appealed an asylum denial to the BIA, you can check the status of your appeal by entering your A number here: acis.eoir.justice.gov/en/. You cannot be deported while the BIA is reviewing your appeal. If you have a special situation and you want to ask BIA to decide your case faster, you could try an expedite request, which is explained here: www.justice.gov/eoir/reference-materials/bia/chapter-6/4. You can also find legal help here: help.asylumadvocacy.org/find-help/. If you have more questions, you are welcome to email us at .

      Is it normal cos the immigration is already processing the deportation

      Thank you for your question and for being part of ASAP’s community! If the immigration judge denies your asylum case, you still have the right to fight back against this decision by appealing to the Board of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”). You have to take the first step within 30 days of the judge’s decision, and then you cannot be deported while your appeal is pending. However, if you decide not to appeal the case, your deportation order will become final and you could be deported.

    Does it go to a different judge if the BIA sends it back to court

    • @asylumadvocacy
      @asylumadvocacy  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your question and for being part of ASAP’s community! Usually, if the BIA (Board of Immigration Appeals) sends a case back to immigration court ("remands" the case), the case goes back to the same judge. Sometimes it may go to a different judge if the first judge has retired or for other scheduling reasons. But usually it goes to the same judge because that judge is already familiar with the facts of the case. However, the judge must follow any instructions that the BIA sets about how the judge must rule on the case.

    Can you write second appeal

    • @asylumadvocacy
      @asylumadvocacy  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your question and for being part of the ASAP community! Sometimes the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) can take many months or over a year to decide a case even after the written arguments are filed. It is possible to file a "Motion to Accept Supplementary Written Arguments" along with additional written legal arguments, if there is new information not previously included.

    That is not true . Even if you filed an appeal you still can be deported

    • @asylumadvocacy
      @asylumadvocacy  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you for your comment and for being part of ASAP’s community! A person who files an appeal of a case in immigration court in time (30 days) can only be deported if they lose their appeal made to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). They cannot be deported while their case is still open on appeal.
