I would like to assure the Deputy that it is a priority to ensure that international protection applications are processed efficiently and effectively, while ensuring the integrity of those processes is maintained at all times.

It would not be appropriate to disclose the reasons a person may apply for international protection.

The table below shows the number of international protection applications from the United States of America from 2017 to 9 September 2025.

Figures are correct at time of issue, however, all statistics may be subject to data cleansing.

My Department does not provide detailed statistics on international protection grant and refusal rates by nationality.
