US Immigration Appeals Board Rules EU Citizens Presumptively Ineligible for Asylum
Original: BIA: EU Citizens and Nationals of ‘Safe Countries’ Are ‘Presumptively Ineligible’ for Asylum
The US Board of Immigration Appeals has determined that citizens of European Union countries and other designated 'safe countries' are presumptively ineligible for asylum, shifting the burden to applicants to prove they face persecution. The ruling is drawing attention from immigration advocates and policy analysts, who see it as a significant tightening of US asylum standards for people from broadly stable democracies.
Why now: Immigration policy watchers are reacting to a precedent-setting asylum ruling that could affect claims from EU nationals.
