U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is opening an asylum office in Atlanta. Beginning July 8, 2026, the Atlanta Asylum Office will conduct interviews for affirmative asylum applicants at three locations. Aliens filing for asylum and aliens who have already filed for asylum who are under the jurisdiction of the Atlanta Asylum Office, which covers Georgia and Alabama, will have their interview scheduled at one of these locations:
- A new, temporary asylum office location in Atlanta;
- The USCIS Atlanta Field Office; or
- The USCIS Montgomery Field Office in Alabama.
The Atlanta Asylum Office is expected to move into a permanent location in 2027. Until then, USCIS will use the above locations for asylum interviews. If you applied for asylum and USCIS schedules you for an asylum interview, carefully review your interview notice for important information about where to appear for your interview.
