The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 8 CFR 1208 after this date.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2013-07252 RIN 1125-AA65 EOIR Docket No. 173 AG Order No. 3375-2013 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, Executive Office for Immigration Review Final rule. This rule is effective April 29, 2013. 8 CFR Parts 1208 and 1240 This final rule adopts without substantive change the proposed rule with request for comments published in the Federal Register on October 31, 2011, and includes several non-substantive, technical corrections. The Department of Justice (Department) is amending its regulations to alter the process by which the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) forwards asylum applications for consideration by the Department of State (DOS), Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor. Currently, EOIR forwards to DOS all asylum applications that are submitted initially in removal proceedings before an immigration judge. The final rule amends the regulations to provide for sending asylum applications to DOS on a discretionary basis. For example, EOIR may forward an application in order to ascertain whether DOS has information relevant to the applicant's eligibility for asylum. This change increases the efficiency of DOS' review of asylum applications and is consistent with similar changes already made by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
