U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services opened an additional asylum office location in San Antonio, Texas. Beginning May 28, 2026, aliens who filed for asylum with USCIS who reside in the jurisdiction of the Houston Asylum Office may be interviewed at either the Houston Asylum Office or the San Antonio Asylum Office. This additional location increases the Houston Asylum Office’s capacity to schedule and conduct affirmative asylum interviews.

The physical and mailing addresses for the new San Antonio-based office are:

Physical Address:

106 S. St. Mary St., 7th Floor
San Antonio, TX 78205

Mailing Address:

16855 Northchase Drive, 2nd Floor

If you applied for asylum and USCIS schedules you for an asylum interview, carefully review your interview notice for important information about where to appear for your interview.

See the Asylum Office Locator for more information about asylum office locations.
