Overview
- France terre d’asile quantifies annual net gains for the State and Social Security at more than €3.3 billion from five measures that speed integration and curb costly enforcement.
- The largest lever is the regularisation of 250,000 undocumented workers, which the group estimates would generate about €2.9 billion a year in income tax and social contributions.
- Earlier work access for asylum seekers, ending the six‑month wait, is projected to add roughly €139 million through lower benefits and new payroll contributions.
- Halting the planned expansion of administrative detention centers and tightening use of detention could save an estimated €219 million a year, while rationalising OQTF issuance would save about €41 million.
- The report lands as draft 2026 credits rise faster for immigration and asylum enforcement than for integration, and as unions and the health insurance council oppose a decree to restrict State medical aid access while a separate proposal would let consulates consult AME beneficiary data.
