Most immigration experts point to violence and starvation conditions in Central and South America as precipitating causes for this wave of immigrants.<\/p>\n<h2>Families in Peril<\/h2>\n<p>Statistics released by the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.gov\/\">Departamento de Seguridad Interior<\/a> on December 10, 2018, indicate that almost 93,000 individuals crossed the border illegally and then requested asylum at an official port of entry. Figures released by Customs and Border Protection estimate that about 60 percent of all those requesting asylum in the United States were part of a family group. This highlights the tragic situations of many of those who have come to the U.S. in search of a safe haven from dangerous conditions in their former homes.<\/p>\n<h2>Metering Process Intended to Discourage Asylum Seekers<\/h2>\n<p>Many immigrants are facing long waits at the border before their case for asylum can even be considered in U.S. immigration courts. This is because of a process referred to as metering, which limits the number of asylum petitioners allowed through the border on a given day. While Customs and Border Protection officials blame these delays on excessive numbers of potential immigrants and limited personnel to handle asylum requests, some immigration advocates believe that metering is a deliberate attempt to discourage potential immigrants before they receive a fair hearing from immigration authorities.<\/p>\n<h2>The Need for Competent Legal Representation<\/h2>\n<p>For immigrants already in this country and facing issues with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or other federal agencies, seeking the professional services of a New York immigration lawyer can provide added help in navigating all aspects of the U.S. legal system.
