Asylum officer questions February 18, 2026

How was Written Statement prepared? when did you last depart from your country? 

How was your visa application prepared? is everything in it true?

Why did you apply for asylum? who do you fear? why?

Were you harmed or threatened in your country? how many times? when was the first harm? the last harm? the worst harm?

what would happen if you return? why would government arrest you? Who are you? what is special about you? How would government find out that you "supported" the NLD? what kind of support did you give? money? hours of labor? sit on a chair during a meeting?

Why are you pro-democracy? Is the government actively looking for you? why do you believe that? why are you against conscription? how could the government find you? why are you in fear today?

Are you in contact with people in Burma today? can't you live safely in Mandalay?
