Noncitizens whose entry is suspended, including those who cross unlawfully between ports of entry instead of using a lawful pathway will generally, not be eligible for asylum
and face a higher screening standard for other forms of protection. Noncitizens who do not establish a legal basis to remain in the United States will:
be promptly removed to their home country or a third country,
face at least a 5-year bar on re-entry, and
confront possible criminal charges for a subsequent unlawful reentry.
