How to read these rates
Asylum grants ÷ (grants + denials). Other outcomes are excluded from this rate. Historical statistics do not predict an individual case.
State totals follow the court at decision time, not the applicant’s home address. Small samples below 50 grants and denials show no rate. Judge comparison requires at least 100.
