  Believe it or not, it’s possible. If you’re gay, atheist or a whistleblower you are eligible for asylum. But you’re right that just being born in Saudi isn’t a free ticket to Berlin.

    The trick is actually presenting yourself and getting them to believe you though I’d bet.

  I know a Saudi in the United States that got asylum because they are gay.

    If I may ask, how was their experience applying for asylum? And what do they think of the US as a place to live?

      I think they chose to request asylum in the US. They are part of the gay community here. They only provided a short, funny version of their asylum experience, claiming they told whoever that they are very gay, and we’re granted asylum.

        Thanks, it seemed easy for them being a discriminated minority, hopefully I will have the same experience. Not gay, but other undisclosed stuff that makes me a minority in danger.

    The next four years will likely make things more and more difficult for anyone trying to immigrate to the US, asylum or otherwise.
