Afghan Asylum Seekers Face Uncertain Future as Trump’s Travel Ban Returns By Khushali Haji |
|
Even before President Trump’s orders, asylum seekers faced years-long waits for their immigration applications to be processed. As of December 2023, New York State had 269 Afghan asylum cases in backlog, out of a total of 153,526, according to the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC). This is over six times the average number from previous years, with applicants often waiting years for a hearing date. |
