Records from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in response to American Oversight’s request for records regarding the Credible Fear Pilot Program, including directives and training materials. These records also include statistics on credible fear interviews conducted by federal law enforcement.

Lawsuit filed by American Oversight against the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) for records, including instructions, training materials, or statistics on interview determinations, regarding the transfer of responsibility for conducting credible fear interviews for asylum seekers from USCIS asylum officers to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) enforcement agents.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection stated it had no records of materials used to train border patrol agents to conduct credible fear interviews. The agency also stated that the material, if it exists, would be under the purview of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
