<p>In 2023 we met the Prime Minister's pledge to clear the legacy backlog of asylum
cases made before 28 June 2022. The Home Office is now prioritising claims (lodged
on or after 28 June 2022).</p><p>These are being considered under provisions in the
Nationality and Borders Act 2022. It is only right that we consider the oldest claims
first.</p><p>Our priority is to consider claims as efficiently as possible, in order
to process claims efficiently, and reduce the number of people on asylum support,
in turn reducing the burden on taxpayers.</p>
