Common reasons why people were denied

COMMON REASONS WHY PEOPLE WERE DENIED ASYLUM:

1.the applicant was inconsistent. He could not repeat, orally, what he had written. Or, the letter from his mother was inconsistent with what he said

2. the applicant voluntarily returned to his country, after he was injured. For example, Mr. C was beaten and imprisoned in his country in 2012. Then, he departs from his country in 2013, is gone for three months, then he voluntarily returns;
then, six months later, he daparts again, and comes to the USA. He says, "I need asylum because it is very dangerous in my country." The Asylum Officer thinks: you departed from the "dangerous" country in 2013, and then you returned to it! If it is really so dangerous, you would not have returned to it."

3. the applicant did not report his problems to the police; the applicant did not seek protection from his own government. Why should the USA give you asylum, if you have not demonstrated that your own country will not help you?

4. Your mother and brother were not beaten and imprisoned. Why not? This shows the government does not hate your entire family. [perhaps they were not beaten because they were not active in politics]

5. Your government has forgotten about you. You think you are a big deal, but no one in your country cares about you anymore. You left your country years ago; they worry about current dissidents, not dissidents from years ago.
