Fiscal years begin October 1. YTD is incomplete and not directly comparable with a full year. Missing or suppressed counts remain unavailable. Original category names are preserved. USCIS geography is not available in the service-wide reports used here.
USCIS I-589: the published denial column includes certain referrals to immigration judges. Other completions include administrative dispositions. These measures are not equivalent to EOIR asylum denials.
Court view: latest recorded asylum outcome among removal cases, grouped by the last IJ completion fiscal year. This is a completion-cohort view, not the date of the asylum decision. It is separate from EOIR’s national initial-completion report. State is the court’s location, not the applicant’s residence. No court rankings.
