What is derivative asylum?

Did you know that asylum in the United States can also protect family members?

Derivative asylum allows your spouse and unmarried children under 21 to receive protection under the principal asylum status. This provides benefits such as protection from deportation and eligibility for work permits. Even if they were not direct victims of persecution, they can still receive protection.
