Ricardo Anaya has the door open to take refuge in United States, as they did at the time Benito Juárez and Francisco I. Madero, according to himself he remembered when he announced his decision to exile. For this, the former presidential candidate it has to fill out an application just like the hundreds of thousands of migrants which reach the northern border each month.
This is the forms I-589 from’ United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS), which must be completed within the first year of your last entry into the United States (unless an exemption applies).
In general, the asylum application a United States can be achieved if the person requesting it fears fear of being raped or has suffered violence in the past because of their race, religion, nationality, or even their political opinion (either their own or their own). which is attributed to him). The request is also valid if there is fear of belonging to a particular social group.
According to what the own Anaya has revealed on his social media, where he has accused that, allegedly, he is a political persecutor of the so-called Fourth Transformation, One of the reasons I could allege before the US authorities is precisely persecution for their political views. Which keeps the way open for asylum.
Among the first steps to follow is the drafting of a written statement explaining, in detail, why the asylum seeker left his country, in this case Mexico, and to which he is afraid in his place of origin for not wanting or not being able to return.
Although not strictly necessary, yes it is a step suggested by activists, And even some authorities, to help the applicant build the explanation to be given before the migration authorities.

the U.S. immigration authorities ask for asylum seekers that they describe their case in as much detail as possible, so that photos, videos and documents endorsing your version are generally welcome.
Since the 1990s, when a reform was carried out, an immigration judge is in charge of reviewing asylum applications which makes the procedures too annoying, and which has left a long line of people waiting for a decision if that is the case, so that last August 18, the Department of Homeland Security present together with the United States Department of Justicedos, a proposal to amend the existing regulations on asylum applications in your country for the purpose of facilitate and expedite the process by preventing them from being brought before a judge at all times.
According to the proposed new regulations, The same officials of the Citizenship and Immigration Service they would be empowered to hear and award asylum applications to anyone who demonstrate a credible fear of being threatened by their home country. As well as on the detention of deportation and the protection of the Convention against Torture.
So, under this new scheme which is to enter into force officially after a period of consultation among the citizens not exceeding 90 days from publication, Anaya he could apply for asylum before a U.S. migration officer and at that precise moment get an answer.
