This August 2024 asylum processing update focuses on the CBP One appointment system and conditions for waiting asylum seekers in Mexican border cities. While waiting in Mexico for a CBP One appointment, asylum seekers continue to face unstable living conditions and security risks in border cities. Civil society organizations have detailed widespread violence against asylum seekers waiting for appointments in Mexico. Certain groups of asylum seekers also continue to experience additional challenges, with Black, LGBTQ+, Indigenous, and non-Spanish speaking asylum seekers often facing targeted discrimination.
