Subtitle B--Cooperation With Countries of Nationality of Unaccompanied 
                             Alien Children

SEC. 1021. IN-COUNTRY REFUGEE PROCESSING.

    (a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Consistent with section 101(a)(42)(B) of the 
        Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(42)(B)) and 
        section 207(e) of such Act (8 U.S.C. 1157(e)), special 
        circumstances currently exist due to grave humanitarian 
        concerns throughout the travel, and attempts to travel, to the 
        United States by unaccompanied children sufficient to justify 
        and require, for fiscal years 2014 and 2015, the allowance of 
        processing of in-country refugee applications in El Salvador, 
        Guatemala, and Honduras in order to prevent such children from 
        undertaking the long and dangerous journey across Central 
        America and Mexico.
            (2) Grave humanitarian concerns exist due to--
                    (A) at least 60,000 unaccompanied children having 
                undertaken the long and dangerous journey to the United 
                States from Central America in fiscal year 2014 alone;
                    (B) substantial reports of unaccompanied children 
                becoming, during the course of their journey intended 
                for the United States, victims of--
                            (i) significant injury, including loss of 
                        limbs;
                            (ii) severe forms of violence;
                            (iii) death due to accident and intentional 
                        killing;
                            (iv) severe forms of human trafficking;
                            (v) kidnap for ransom; and
                            (vi) sexual assault and rape; and
                    (C) the likelihood that the vast majority of the 
                unaccompanied children seeking admission or immigration 
                relief, including through application as a refugee or 
                claims of asylum, do not qualify for such admission or 
                relief, and therefore will be repatriated.
            (3) While special circumstances currently exist to justify 
        in-country refugee application processing for El Salvador, 
        Guatemala, and Honduras, it is appropriate to determine the 
        admissibility of individuals applying for refugee status from 
        those countries according to current law and granting 
        administrative relief in instances in which refugee or asylum 
        applications are denied, or are expected to be denied, would 
        exacerbate the grave humanitarian concerns described in 
        paragraph (2) by further encouraging attempts at migration.
    (b) Authority for In-Country Refugee Processing.--Notwithstanding 
section 101(a)(42)(B) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 
1101(a)(42)(B)), for fiscal years 2014 and 2015, the Secretary of 
State, in consultation with the Secretary of Homeland Security and the 
Director of the Office of Refugee Resettlement of the Department of 
Health and Human Services, shall process an application for refugee 
status--
            (1) for an alien who is a national of El Salvador, 
        Guatemala, or Honduras and is located in such country; or
            (2) in the case of an alien having no nationality, for an 
        alien who is habitually residing in such country and is located 
        in such country.
    (c) Rule of Construction.--Nothing in this section may be construed 
as a grant of immigration benefit or relief, nor as a change to 
existing law regarding the eligibility for any individual for such 
benefit or relief, other than to the extent refugee applications shall 
be permitted in-country in accordance with this section.

SEC. 1022. REFUGEE ADMISSIONS FROM CERTAIN COUNTRIES.

determining the number of refugees who may be admitted under section 
207(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act (8 U.S.C. 1157(a))--
