I am waiting for my former J-1 home residency requirement to be granted a waiver. Either get back to the F-1 status and pay for some tuition. Or if you qualify, try for an O-Visa. Marc Ellis took over as speaker for the rest of the session. My question is regarding political asylum.
Some countries are the source of more believable asylum claims than are other countries.
A claim from Afghanistan might be more credible than a claim from Denmark. Honduras, for instance, after Hurricane Mitch. Or Rwanda and Sierra Leone during their civil wars. Does that mean INS has the power to challenge the Court decision. However, even admitting that you committed a crime of moral turpitude or drug offense, or admitting the acts that constitute that offense, can get you placed in removal proceedings.
