After registration – what happens then?

What does the Reception Unit do?

• determines if you are entitled to a daily allowance — if you don´t have any money of your own
• informs you when a decision has been made on your case — if your asylum application has been granted or refused
• provides support if your asylum application is refused and you are to return home.
• search for your parents.

You and your custodian will be called to a meeting at the Reception Unit. At this meeting you will talk about what will happen while you apply for asylum. At this meeting you will have the opportunity to ask questions.

At the Reception Unit you can also get help to phone your parents or other relatives to let them know where you are and how you are feeling.

On the following pages you can read more about the process. You can also use the headings in the left menu.
