Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aliens who are admitted to the United States because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution initially or eventually may be eligible for Refugee status, Asylum, or LPR (Lawful Permanent Resident) status. Therefore, the best choice would be D, "All of the above". Aliens who are admitted to the United States because of persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution are eligible for refugee status if they apply for protection from outside the United States, and they are eligible for asylum if they apply for protection from within the United States. If the alien is granted refugee status or asylum, they may eventually become eligible for LPR (Lawful Permanent Resident) status. Therefore, all of the options (refugee status, asylum, and LPR status) are potentially available to aliens admitted to the United States due to persecution or a well-founded fear of persecution.
