Asylum Accountability Act

This bill proposes to amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to establish a permanent ineligibility for adjustment of status for certain non-citizens. It specifically targets individuals who are issued a final order of removal because they failed to appear at their scheduled removal proceeding. The legislation removes the existing 10-year limitation on this bar, thereby making the disqualification from becoming a permanent resident indefinite. This change would apply unless exceptional circumstances are determined to exist, ensuring a stricter consequence for non-appearance in removal proceedings.
