Asylum Support

About Asylum Support

Asylum support is the housing and basic financial help provided by the Home Office to asylum seekers who would otherwise be destitute. It is not generous but it can be a lifeline while your claim is decided. Applications and reviews are handled through specific forms and processes, and refusals or sudden cessations can be challenged. RakLAW helps you apply correctly, gather evidence of destitution, and pursue appeals to the Asylum Support Tribunal where support has been wrongly refused or stopped.

Who this is for

  • Asylum seekers facing destitution or homelessness
  • Families with children needing safe accommodation
  • Refused applicants who cannot leave the UK safely
  • Anyone whose support has been suddenly stopped

How RakLAW helps

  • Section 95 and Section 4 support applications prepared
  • Evidence of destitution and case circumstances built
  • Tribunal appeals against refusal or termination
  • Liaison with the Home Office and accommodation providers
