9 common myths about newcomers to Colorado
By Andrea Kramar


In 2023, about 1,200 asylum decisions were made in Colorado’s immigration courts, with about 50% of cases granting asylum and 50% denying asylum, according to Syracuse University’sTransactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) which collects and tracks immigration data. In analysis of data from TRAC and various government agencies, Rocky Mountain PBS found that for asylum cases adjudicated in 2022, individuals received similar 50-50 outcomes. In the preceding years from 2018-2021, asylum was denied more frequently — in as many as 75% of cases.
