Answer

If there is a discrepancy between the information someone provides at any stage in the asylum process, and any related facts subsequently established, this will be taken into account alongside any other underlying factors when assessing their credibility in line with section 8 of the Asylum and Immigration (Treatment of Claimants) Act 2004 and the relevant policy guidance.
