Home Immigration Services Fresh Claims for Asylum

Fresh Claims for Asylum, Scotland

A fresh claim for asylum is made when an asylum seeker submits new evidence or further submissions to the Home Office, seeking to satisfy the fresh claim legal test under immigration rules, with the aim of reopening their asylum claims application and potentially gaining refugee status.

If your asylum or humanitarian protection claim has been refused or withdrawn, or any appeal has been refused, our experienced immigration and asylum solicitors may be able to assist you to make further submissions to the Home Office.

A fresh asylum claim involves submitting new and relevant evidence to the Home Office, aiming to satisfy the legal test and reopen the asylum process for a potential grant of refugee status.

Further submissions will amount to a fresh claim for asylum. It should include information that is significantly different from the material which has already been provided because:

There is new material that has not already been considered.
Taken together with the material that has been previously considered, there is a realistic prospect of success.

Every Jones Whyte asylum solicitor has experience in preparing fresh claims and regularly gathers expert evidence, such as medical reports. We will provide detailed representations to assist you.
