Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what qualifications are required to be appointed as an Asylum Decision Maker.

We recruit using standard Civil Service recruitment processes and all our asylum decision makers must meet minimum Civil Service recruitment standards. Once appointed the Home Office offers a comprehensive training programme and mentoring framework for decision makers.

Information about the asylum decision-maker role is available online to potential candidates on Home Office Jobs under Asylum and Protection, Role Overview.
