In 2007, the Refugee Program in Iquique is installed due to the increased numbers of applications inthe region of Tarapaca. In 2010, the Refugee Act is launched in Chile, nonetheless, thereafter; bothapplications for refugee status and concessions for protection begin to decrease, reaching a derisoryfigure in 2012. Given the participation of the authors in the Refugee Program and a participatorydiagnostic with refugee women applicants, it has been elucidated some aspects about the process.It is identified that in the region there is a "pre admissibility" instance, preliminary to the refugeeapplication process. The irregular entrance of the refugees is a determining reason for inadmissibilitystatus to the process. The main factor that tends to the irregular entrance is the denial of the entryto Chile. As a result, people not admitted in the process, choose for staying illegally/clandestine inthe country. Whom that are recognized as requestors or refugees, stay subjects to the demobilizedassistance of the international humanitary system or to the lack of awareness toward the refugeestatus by the key institutions and comunity in general, situation that results in discrimination andracism
