USCIS: "On March 15, 2022, USCIS published another extension to the temporary final rule (TFR) that requires certain asylum applicants to use our contract telephonic interpreters instead of bringing their own interpreters to their affirmative asylum interview. The TFR extends the requirement through March 16, 2023. This extension retains a previous modification that provides that in limited circumstances, if a USCIS interpreter is not available, we will either reschedule the affirmative asylum interview or, at our discretion, allow the applicant to provide an interpreter. USCIS contract interpreters are available in 47 languages, listed on the TFR webpage. There is no fee to use a government-provided interpreter. If the applicant does not speak English or any of the 47 languages listed, they must bring their own interpreter to the affirmative asylum interview."
