Immigration Courts – Backlog of Pending Cases Increases
Thousands of pending cases in immigration courts
The US immigration system is currently saturated and there is a large backlog of immigration cases for multiple reasons, let’s look at some of them:
- Last time Congress passed immigration reform was 35 years ago. Therefore, many existing policies are not aligned with current global needs and cannot meet the demand and increasing numbers of immigration applications that come with globalization and international transit.
- The Trump administration (2017-2021) made hundreds of changes to the local immigration system to restrict and hinder most existing processes and to reduce immigration levels in the US. These policies undoubtedly increased the backlog of pending immigration cases.
- The sudden arrival of the global Coronavirus pandemic almost completely paused immigration in the US, further delaying pending processes and increasing the backlog of immigration cases.
Therefore, currently, thousands of foreigners have not been able to complete their immigration processes due to the health crisis and other circumstances that lengthen waiting times and could put their future in the US at risk.
To give a specific example, in New York, the average waiting time for most immigration cases in court is 980 days, and there are currently about 146,000 pending immigration cases, a number that continues to grow.
