Fresh claim for asylum

A fresh claim for asylum refers to a situation whereby an asylum seeker has had their appeal heard and dismissed, but new evidence has since come to light and is pertinent to the case.

For a fresh claim to be accepted by the Home Office, the information provided must be used to reinforce an existing argument or provide an entirely new argument with evidence to back up the claim.

There must also be evidence that the evidence would result in a realistic prospect of success.

The Home Office will only consider new evidence that contains new and relevant information.

It is recommended to seek legal advice from a qualified immigration lawyer if you intend to submit a fresh claim for asylum. If you need support with your initial claim for asylum, we can also support you.
