Another benefit is that EOIR would not see the cases in which USCIS grants asylum, which we estimate as at least a 15 percent reduction in their overall credible fear workload. This stands to mitigate the backlog of cases pending in immigration courts. Additionally, this benefit would extend to individuals granted or denied asylum faster than if they were to go through the current process with EOIR.
Depending on the individual case circumstances, this proposed rule would mean that such noncitizens would likely not remain in the United Statesfor years, potentiallypending resolution of their claims, and those who qualify for asylum would be granted asylum several years earlier than they are under the present process.
The anticipated operational efficiencies from this proposed rule may provide for prompt grant of relief or protection to qualifying noncitizens and ensure that those who do not qualify for relief or protection are removed more efficiently than they are under current rules.

Annualized quantified, but un-monetized, costs
Potential cost-savings applicable to Form I589 of $338.86 per person.
Potential cost-savings applicable to Form I765 of $377.32 per person.
Potential early labor earnings of $225.44 per person per workday.
The transfer of cases from EOIR to USCIS would allow resources at EOIR to be directed to other work, and there is a potential for cost-savings to be realized as it relates to credible fear processing specifically, if the average cost of work-time spent on cases by USCIS
asylum officers would be lower than at EOIR currently.
These would not be budgetary cost-savings, and USCIS
has not made a one-to-one timeand cost-specific comparison between worktime actually spent on a case at EOIR and USCIS.
Qualitative unquantified costs

Annualized transfers:
Potential labor earnings that would accrue to credible fear asylum applicants that enter the labor market earlier than they would currently.
From whom to whom?
Potentially a distributional economic impact in the form of a transfer to asylum applicants who enter earlier than they would currently from others in the U.S. workforce.
