Unless the review is instantaneous, you still have a housing problem.

A much more manageable one, and one that might not actually require increasing resources by all that much. We have lots of detention facilities along the southern border, and an existing budget to operate them. Some were the facilities where the controversial "kids in cages" images came from. The reason that they're inadequate for this purpose is because it takes so long to get people through the system. If each claim takes 4.5 years to process, then your population will be about 4.5 x the annual number of applicants.

If you hire enough judges to get that time frame down to a more reasonable six months or so, then you've reduced the number of people that would need to be housed by 90%, or roughly have a year's worth of asylee applicants. A vastly smaller number. And even if you don't detain 100% of them, the number of asylees who are not detained while awaiting their hearing will be a much more manageable number as well, and won't crush the communities they live in while awaiting their hearings.
