Where is the Los Angeles Asylum Office actually located?
Despite the name, the street address is 14101 Myford Road, Tustin, CA 92780-7020, and USCIS lists no floor or suite. Mail goes elsewhere: USCIS Los Angeles Asylum Office, P.O. Box 2003, Tustin, CA 92781-2003. A new asylum application on Form I-589 does not go to either address; the form's Where to File instructions apply. Hours are Monday through Friday by appointment only, closed Saturday and Sunday, with no clock times. Weather and other reasons can close the office, so check the USCIS closings page before leaving home, even with an appointment. USCIS dated this page April 20, 2026, and we read it October 31, 2026.
Which counties and states does the Tustin office serve?
USCIS lists nine California counties: Imperial, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura. It also lists four Nevada counties, Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln and Nye, plus all of Arizona, Hawaii and the Territory of Guam. So a Las Vegas applicant in Clark County or an applicant in Phoenix appears under this office, while the rest of California and Nevada falls under the San Francisco Asylum Office. Service area is based on the USCIS list, but the interview location is whatever your notice states. Our guide to the affirmative asylum process explains the interview itself.
How do I get to 14101 Myford Road, and where do I park?
USCIS says onsite parking is in designated areas, spaces marked RESERVED are off limits, and it states no price. From I-5 in either direction, exit at Jamboree Road (Exit 100): from the south turn right, from the north turn left. Then turn right onto Michelle Drive and left onto Myford Road, with the office on the right. By surface streets, take Walnut Avenue to Myford Road and head north; the office is on the left. For transit, USCIS points to OCTA at octa.net, calling it the Orange County Transit Authority; the agency's own site says Orange County Transportation Authority. The closest train is the Metrolink station at 2975 Edinger Avenue, Tustin. USCIS does not give the distance, so check the connection beforehand.
Who can I call or email at the Los Angeles Asylum Office?
USCIS lists 714-368-5700 as the phone, 714-368-5799 as the fax and LosAngelesAsylum@uscis.dhs.gov as the email. It does not recommend emailing a Social Security number or A-Number unless it is in an encrypted or password-protected attachment. Since April 20, 2026, the office has provided no in-person information services and takes no walk-ins, so driving to Tustin with a question will not work. For general help, the USCIS Contact Center is 800-375-5283, Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern.
I searched for a Los Angeles immigration court. Is this it?
No. Tustin is a USCIS office, and hearings are run by a different agency. EOIR's status page, read October 31, 2026, lists three Los Angeles court locations: 300 North Los Angeles Street, Room 4330, 6230 Van Nuys Boulevard and 5245 Pacific Concourse Drive. It also lists the Santa Ana court at 1241 East Dyer Road, Suite 200. Our Los Angeles immigration court page has more on those locations, and you can confirm your hearing date and court with EOIR.
