i589 form

The i589 form, also known as the Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal, is a form that individuals can complete to request asylum in the United States. The form must be filed within one year of the individual's arrival in the U.S. and requires detailed information about the individual's personal background, reasons for seeking asylum, and any past persecution or fear of future persecution in their home country. The form must be submitted to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and is typically accompanied by supporting documentation and evidence.
