About this directory

Search or browse 1,497 named immigration-judge profiles with a published grant-or-denial denominator in the current EOIR snapshot. Placeholder roster entries and zero-denominator profiles are excluded from this directory instead of being presented as real 0.0% grant rates.

Profiles show the numerator and denominator behind each grant rate, the court listing in this snapshot, yearly outcomes, nationality breakdowns, and current case-detail filters where data is available.

A historical rate is context, not a prediction. Check the sample size and nationality mix, then read the grant-rate methodology.
