"What country are these people from that are seeking asylum? Mexico?"

Immigration Court Asylum Statistics

So, with these thoughts and cautions in mind, it is possible to get government-issued statistics on the countries of origin of asylum grantees, at the Department of Justice's Executive Office of Immigration Review Statistical Year Book page. The Year Book tracks grants of defensive asylum in removal proceedings.

Keep in mind that while these statistics may include applications originally filed affirmatively with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) that were denied and referred to the immigration court, it does not include those asylum applications that were originally approved by USCIS. For example, in 2016, USCIS approved 15,999 asylum applications without sending them on for court proceedings, but did not track them by nationality.

The latest Yearbook (as of early 201Cool was for 2016. And the top ten countries whose citizens were granted asylum in the U.S. included (from most to least):

1.China
2.El Salvador
3.Guatemala
4.Honduras
5.Mexico
6.India
7.Nepal
8.Ethiopia
9.Somalia
10.Eritrea

China alone accounted for an impressive 36% of the asylum grants in 2016, and it has topped the list in every one of the last several years. China has a large population to begin with, so this isn’t too surprising. El Salvador comes in next at a mere 8.6%. 

The overall grant rate is on the decline, and was at 48% in 2016.

For more information on applying for asylum in the U.S., see the Asylum & Refugee Status page of Nolo’s website.

What country are these people from that are seeking asylum? Mexico? From what I have read Mexico is simply acting as a conduit for Central Americans. If they are seeking asylum fine. They have no right to enter our country illegally. There should be consequences for breaking our laws.

I know many, many Republicans that choose to help the less fortunate without any fanfare. They achieve much more good by their actions. Government programs are extremely costly, inefficient and eventually corrupted.

The left just wastes resources while sanctimoniously virtue signaling. It is really tiresome.
