I certify, under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America, that this application and the
evidence submitted with it are all true and correct. Title 18, United States Code, Section 1546(a), provides in part:
Whoever knowingly makes under oath, or as permitted under penalty of perjury under Section 1746 of Title 28,
United States Code, knowingly subscribes as true, any false statement with respect to a material fact in any
application, affidavit, or other document required by the immigration laws or regulations prescribed thereunder, or
knowingly presents any such application, affidavit, or other document containing any such false statement or
which fails to contain any reasonable basis in law or fact - shall be fined in accordance with this title or

WARNING: Applicants who are in the United States unlawfully are subject to removal if their asylum or withholding claims are not
granted by an asylum officer or an immigration judge. Any information provided in completing this application may be used as a basis for
the institution of, or as evidence in, removal proceedings even if the application is later withdrawn. Applicants determined to have
knowingly made a frivolous application for asylum will be permanently ineligible for any benefits under the Immigration and Nationality
Act. You may not avoid a frivolous finding simply because someone advised you to provide false information in your asylum application. If
filing with USCIS, unexcused failure to appear for an appointment to provide biometrics (such as fingerprints) and your biographical
information within the time allowed may result in an asylum officer dismissing your asylum application or referring it to an immigration
judge. Failure without good cause to provide DHS with biometrics or other biographical information while in removal proceedings may
result in your application being found abandoned by the immigration judge. See sections 208(d)(5)(A) and 208(d)(6) of the INA and 8 CFR
sections 208.10, 1208.10, 208.20, 1003.47(d) and 1208.20.
