Aslyum from SA

[aissai 0]

I want to try and get my sister and her husband and baby to USA because of what is going on in south Africa.  It has become very dangerous to live.

Good luck with that, but do a search on Facebook or something, there are others trying the same thing, I came across a discussion there.

Well, they’ll have to show reasons they think they will be personally persecuted. A general level of violence doesn’t make the grade. They’ll first have to get here, and then ask for it. Then it gets adjudicated and they are either granted it or sent back home. As far as I am aware (and I am guessing what demographic they are) they are very few successful cases because the specific persecution aspect is very hard to prove from a country where violence is widespread against all sectors of society. If they are unsuccessful they will be deported. It’s not really a DIY thing.

Boiler, your post has among other things advice to show fraudulent documents to board an airplane. I am pretty sure that this is against VJ TOS. I picked a random middle element and that was what came up. Didn’t watch the rest of it, the inflammatory headline tells you the angle.

Must admit I only watched the beginning. 

 

I would have thought flying to Mexico and heading north would be the obvious option. Presume SA's can visit Mexico?

With a visa, or a US visa, yes.

I sort of assume it is easier to get a visa to Mexico than to the US, to claim Asylum you need to get to a US airport or a land Port of Entry.

 

We tend to get a distorted view of those seeking Asylum and I assume that despite the impression given by the US Media it is not all Central Americans.

[SusieQQQ 11,587]

It’s definitely not all Central Americans, there are still countries in Africa where they have the death penalty for being gay for example so that is a group that certainly is a non-LatinX demographic seeking asylum.

Are you white? If so then no, you don't stand a chance. The rest of the white world refuses to recognize the genocide happening in SA.

I do not want to incur the wrath of the Mods, but at least one US Immigration Lawyer admittedly talking about Farmers considered a solid case could be made. Assuming land is expropriated then I would expect proving a solid case would be a non issue.

Um hello, white South African here. There is no genocide. What there is, is a high rate of violent crime against all races in South Africa, some of which is publicized a lot more than others for certain political ends. There is admittedly a very cruel element against some of the white farmers, just as there is against black gay/trans people in certain parts of the country, though the latter somehow doesn’t get the same publicity. I wonder why? There’s apparently a lot of help/info available on the white nationalist/alt right type websites for those who believe there is persecution against whites. I’m sure OP can find the info he/she is looking for there.

But you can claim asylum at a port of entry, then get admitted to the USA and wait for years until your asylum case is heard. I'm not saying that's right, but it's the way it is now.
