Asylum is granted to foreign nationals who are persecuted in their home country and can provide legal status. Its benefits are the right to remain in the United States, to work in the U.S., to bring family members to the United States from their home country, and to apply for permanent residency. Withholding of Removal prevents being removed to a country where one would be probably persecuted, but does not grant legal status. Withholding of Removal allows to work in the United States as long as the foreign national is protected from removal. In certain circumstances a person can be denied Asylum but granted Withholding of Removal, such as discretionary denial of asylum that does not apply to Withholding of Removal and certain bars to asylum that do not apply to Withholding of Removal.
