Limitations & comparability
USCIS FY2024 Annual Statistical Report, printed pages 7 and 15 (PDF pages 8 and 16). Naturalizations count persons taking the oath, not N-400 receipts or completions. Affirmative asylum counts Form I-589 receipts, not people, grants, defensive asylum or credible-fear screenings. USCIS publishes rounded counts. FY2023 naturalizations and FY2022 asylum receipts match the previous USCIS report. Earlier observations retain their original source and precision. OHSS naturalization totals have not been substituted for this USCIS series. Publication date is not stated in the reviewed PDF.
