Turning to the disparate positive outcome, data limitations constrain our ability to suggest why African children receive immigration relief while in ORR custody at a much higher rate and more quickly than non-African children, although immigration relief is uncommon for all children. The ORR data do not identify the specific form a child’s
immigration relief took: asylum, special immigrant juvenile status, temporary protected status, parole, or something else. As each form of immigration relief has distinct legal requirements, different forms would suggest different explanations. For example, if African children’s immigration relief took the form of asylum, the higher rate would comport with the typically higher grant rate for African asylum seekers compared to others.....[Citing TRAC data and reports].
