No the point of someone coming to a country and claiming asylum is they want safety from persecution or fleeing war if their country isn't safe.

So of course they will likely be illegal when they arrive, likely having left most of their personal belongings behind. I'm sure international law presides in cases of seeking asylum to enter a country.

Also not all are liars, cheats and fakes. However passing judgement on someone is not possible and to call them such is unfair.
