Leaving one’s home country is not something
that should be taken lightly. People are compelled to leave their birth places
due to poverty, fear of persecution and even devastation caused by natural
disasters. Nonetheless, there are many misconceptions regarding Asylum floating
around making it difficult for both asylum seekers and other citizen alike. In
the following text asylum solicitors
have highlighted the most common myths surrounding asylum in the UK.
Asylums
Seekers are harming the Education System By taking unfair advantage of their
asylum status when getting admissions in schools.
Asylums seekers are subject to same
admission rules as any other UK national. This means that the child will only
be given consideration based on their medical condition, whether other siblings
are also in the same school and how close the child lives to the school.
Asylums
Seekers are given free homes and full benefits as soon as they arrive in the
UK.
This is also not true as asylum seekers are
not are not allowed to claim mainstream welfare benefits. Asylums seekers can
claim benefits that paid by the National Asylum Support Service (NASS) and not
from council taxes. Asylum solicitors
state that more than 85% asylum seekers experience hunger and 95% cannot afford
new cloths.
Most
of the Asylums Seekers are not genuine Asylum seekers.
Fortunately, the UK has a very strict
system for asylum seekers due to which most of the asylum applications are
refused. Chances of a bogus asylum application are very less.
