Hungary did slash benefits for asylum seekers and refugees in 2016: April cuts ended pocket money and work rights; June eliminated integration aid, housing, and health extensions for recognized refugees. Asylum apps: ~177k in 2015 → 29k in 2016 (83% drop) → 3.4k in 2017 (98% from 2015 peak). The drop started with the 2015 border fence and 2016 push-backs (8-km rule), which blocked most entries. Welfare cuts added to the deterrent, but physical barriers were the bigger factor. Data from Eurostat, Hungarian Helsinki Committee, and IOM.
