The Austrian government has proposed new rules for granting asylum, according to which asylum seekers will have to pay €840 for asylum processing and hand over their mobile phones. The German edition Zeit reported in that regard,
The funds will cover the costs of asylum processing and data of migrant phones will be checked.
Other proposed measure in the draft-bill includes making it faster to deport asylum seekers who commit crimes. In addition, if the asylum seekers will return to homeland temporarily, they will lose their right to live in Austria.
According to measures worked out by the Austrian government the refugees will only be able to apply for Austrian citizenship after 10 years, instead of six.
The Austrian government will submit a legislative initiative to the Parliament in the nearest future.
