This chart gives a basic breakdown of the qualifications, standards, and benefits of asylum, Withholding of Removal under INA § 241(b)(3), Withholding of Removal under the Convention Against Torture, and Deferral of Removal under the Convention Against Torture. 



When filing an I-589 application with either USCIS or the immigration court, 4 different forms of relief are to be considered. Only asylum can be applied for affirmatively (through USCIS), while the other forms or relief are only available defensively (before an immigration judge).
