withholding of removal carries a higher burden of proof. To qualify, you must show that it is &#8216;more likely than not&#8217; that you will face persecution if returned to your home country. Unlike asylum, withholding of removal does not lead to a path to permanent residence or citizenship, but it does prevent your deportation to a dangerous situation.<\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1430bfc e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1430bfc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0b1af7d no_select elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"0b1af7d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Protection Against Torture Convention (CAT)<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ebdf13e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"ebdf13e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4222254 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"4222254\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38dbd32 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"38dbd32\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4cfe346 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"4cfe346\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6bddc63 e-con-full no_select e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6bddc63\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b334cb2 no_select elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b334cb2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/visafinder.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Asilo5-qoij9gin1msa5iqwp1sa0tjt71e3qs0xq3nlw1ni14.jpg\" title=\"Asilo5\" alt=\"Asilo5\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f99e5a4 no_select elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f99e5a4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/visafinder.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/elementor\/thumbs\/Asilo6-qoijaw7rhir1w2ntb64rbyi5v8bai4q697jba9iuiw.jpg\" title=\"Asilo6\" alt=\"Asilo6\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2f01eec no_select elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2f01eec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b78aae4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-pxl_heading\" data-id=\"b78aae4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"pxl_heading.default\"><p>If you can establish that you would be subjected to torture if returned to your home country, you may qualify for CAT protection.
