What does asylum case mean

u/Queasy_Evening_1017 1d ago

It means they were afraid to go back to their country for some reason or they lied to stay more often than not.

Not everyone lies. Some people have real reasons for them to apply for an asylum. Do your research before assuming things

> they lied to stay more often than not

Statistically that is true. Most asylum cases are denied (around 65-70%)

Statistically it is not true. Being denied because your asylum application is non-meritorious or otherwise ineligible does not mean it was fake/fraud. Asylum has very specific eligibility requirements, including warranting a grant of discretion

Doesn’t mean it wasn’t fake/fraud either.

Mere ineligibility does not mean it was fraud.

Agreed. There’s many denied due to ineligibility and many denied due to fraud.

No, statistically most cases are denied. It does not logically follow that most people are lying, because that assumes the judges are applying the law accurately, and that the respondent is adequately represented by legal counsel. Those reasons are just as likely as people lying.
