国土安全部和司法部发布新规则来处理庇护申请
April 5, 2022
According to USCIS, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) are issuing a rule to efficiently and fairly process asylum claims made by noncitizens subject to expedited removal. Those who are eligible for asylum will be granted relief quickly with the new rule. The rule allows asylum officers within USCIS to consider the asylum applications of individuals subject to removal that fear persecution or torture and meet the criteria under a fear screening. Any individual who is not granted asylum will be referred for removal proceedings before an immigration judge. Due to the backlogs, the process for hearing and deciding asylum cases currently takes several years. The newly implemented rule will shorten the process to several months for most asylum applicants.
