  1. Both countries had strict Immigration quotas.
  2. Both countries demanded finanical guarantees for refugees. Unless they had firm job offers in advance someone (or a family or a charity) had to undertake to support them and make sure that they did not become a burden on the public. After the Night of Broken Glass (9-10 November 1939) Britain relaxed some of the restrictions.
  3. With the outbreak of war in 1939 international communications were disrupted to an increasing extent. In particular, after the fall of France in June 1940, actually reaching Britain from Continental Europe became extremely hard. The same applied to the problem of actually reaching the U.S. from December 1941.
  4. After the outbreak of war Germans and Austrians (regardless of whether Jewish or not) technically became enemy aliens in Britain, though most were able to produce evidence that they were refugees. However, the popular press stirred up anti-refugee hysteria in June 1940, and the British government interned all male Germans and Austrians of military age. Their cases were reviewed one by one and some were released after a few weeks, but some were held for considerably longer. (Known British Fascists were also interned).
