How can I check the status of my U.S. refugee application? – IRAP

The International Refugee Assistance Project (IRAP) provides free legal help to some refugees and displaced people.

IRAP decides to help people based on their need and eligibility for immigration status. IRAP does not decide to help people based on any other social or political or religious criteria.

This website provides general information about legal processes available to some refugees. It is not meant as legal advice for individual applications.

This information was revised in November 2020. Requirements may change. Always check for current requirements from the government or agency deciding your request.

If you have a U.S. refugee resettlement application, check your case status by contacting the office of your country:
