FOIA Reveals EOIR’s Immigration Court Organizational Structure Staffing Implementation Plan

On May 24, 2019, AILA submitted a FOIA request to EOIR for EOIR's "review of the Office of the Chief Immigration Judge workforce that, according to EOIR officials, addresses and mitigates gaps and more clearly defines roles and responsibilities." This review was identified in the U.S. Government Accountability Office's (GAO) Priority Open Recommendations that was published on April 10, 2019.

EOIR responded to this request on July 18, 2019, and provided AILA with EOIR's Immigration Court Organizational Structure Staffing Implementation Plan. This staffing plan is dated July 18, 2018, and contains new immigration court staffing models, steps to implementation, recruitment strategy and timeline, and sample organizational charts.
