Are they working with an immigration lawyer? That would be the best option if they are unsure how to justify the case at the hearing. It's extremely important that they present a strong case for the mother.
my friend dad not in this world he has no brother mum got two daughters but they both married their husband she can’t go stay with them so only option she has her son because son is pr and his wife citizen so she has strong ties here than home country what do you think her chances ?
This argument isn't a basis for a successful refugee claim. She needs to prove persecution in her home country for a refugee claim. Please hire an immigration lawyer.
My friend already got his pr because before hearing he got married and his pr card he got his passport back also but in their story he was the one who went through all the torture back home mom get threat but he was main applicant now his mom problem is she is in stress after her husband death she can’t talk much she can’t explain herself she is 62 years old but mentally she is 80 very weak .
Again, your friend needs to consult a lawyer.... In my opinion, mum only option is humanitarian and compassionate ground. your friend knew of plan A-Z when he withdrew his claim as main applicant...He needs to lawyer up
So your friend withdrew his claim as a refugee? Or he just got PR without making changes to his claim?
I haven't encountered someone with this situation before but my understanding is that your friend will have to attend his mom's hearing and clarify the situation. Because his withdrawal reason is different than those who withdraw their claim and go back to their country. It makes sense to the member that he still has those risks on him and his mother back in their home country and nothing changes this fact, so I strongly believe everything will be fine as long as he would be there to explain his reason for withdrawal. Besides, his mother is still in danger if she goes back as long as she can prove it, it doesn't matter his son has PR or not.
But before my friend and his mother name together because they applied together but he got married he withdraw his case but his mom case still proceeding he can’t do anything or talk behalf of his mother because in hearing letter clearly suggest only applicant is her mother he got nothing to do with this hearing because he withdraw long time back .
If the son isn’t part of the asylum claim he will not be part of the hearing. It will be up to the mother and a translator if required to explain why her life is in danger in her home country.
The mother and a translator, if necessary, will have to explain why her life is in danger if she returns to her home country. The son is not part of the claim so will not be able to explain the situation. If they declared that it was the son who was really in danger in their original asylum claim that will be problematic for the mother. She needs to be working with her lawyer about her specific asylum claim but cultural reasons, like usually living with elder son, are not a reason to receive asylum.
