Why is my asylum support ending? Expand If you receive a negative asylum decision and do not appeal, in most instances your asylum support will end. You have 21 days from notification of your asylum decision to move on from Home Office support. Your accommodation provider will give you a minimum of seven days’ notice in a ‘notice to quit’ before your asylum accommodation will end. This notice might be provided verbally, or in writing.
