Can You Apply for Asylum After Entering the U.S. Illegally?
Yes, you can apply for asylum even if you entered the U.S. illegally. The U.S. asylum laws do not disqualify individuals solely based on how they entered the country. However, there are some important factors to keep in mind:
- One-Year Filing Deadline: Generally, you must apply for asylum within one year of your arrival in the U.S. If you entered the country illegally, this deadline still applies. Missing the one-year deadline could make you ineligible for asylum unless you can show extraordinary circumstances that caused the delay.
- Credible Fear Interview: If you are apprehended by immigration authorities after entering the U.S. illegally, you may be placed in expedited removal proceedings. In this situation, you will undergo a credible fear interview to determine if you have a valid fear of persecution in your home country. If the interview is successful, you may be allowed to apply for asylum.
- Bars to Asylum: Certain factors can disqualify you from receiving asylum, regardless of how you entered the U.S. These include participating in persecution, posing a security threat, or committing certain crimes. It’s essential to disclose all relevant information to your attorney to assess your eligibility.

Alert Type infoALERT: Court Order on Circumvention of Lawful Pathways Final RuleOn Aug. 3, 2023, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit issued a stay of the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California’s order in East Bay Sanctuary Covenant v. Biden, 18-cv-06810 (N.D. Cal.), vacating the Circumvention of Lawful Pathways (CLP) rule. At this time and while the stay remains in place, USCIS will continue to apply the CLP rule.Under the rule, certain individuals who enter the United States through its southwest land border or adjacent coastal borders are presumed to be ineligible for asylum, unless they can demonstrate an exception to the rule or rebut the presumption. Individuals are encouraged to use lawful, safe, and orderly pathways to come to the United States.
They entered illegally. Period. But looney liberals don't care about the law.
