USCIS Opens Asylum Office in Atlanta

July, 2026

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) opened an asylum office in Atlanta, expanding where affirmative asylum interviews were handled for cases in Georgia and Alabama.

Beginning July 8, 2026, the Atlanta Asylum Office started conducting interviews for affirmative asylum applicants. Interviews were scheduled at one of three locations, depending on operational needs and the details listed on the interview notice

What changes on July 8, 2026

Starting on that date, individuals who file for affirmative asylum and fall under the jurisdiction of the Atlanta Asylum Office will have interviews scheduled at one of the following:

  • A new, temporary asylum office location in Atlanta
  • The USCIS Atlanta Field Office
  • The USCIS Montgomery Field Office (Alabama)

USCIS has indicated the Atlanta Asylum Office is expected to move into a permanent location in 2027. Until then, these three locations will be used for asylum interviews.

Interview notices matter (location can vary)

USCIS will schedule the interview location and provide it on the official interview notice. Because interviews may take place at different sites, the notice should be reviewed carefully for:

  • The exact address of the interview location
  • The date and time of the appointment
  • Any additional instructions tied to the specific office

USCIS stated the three offices share mailing addresses. The mailing addresses below should be used based on the carrier.
