Yes.
In 1996 the U.S. Congress changed the law regarding asylum by imposing a new potential penalty for all asylum applicants who filed applications after April 1, 1997. This new penalty would bar any applicant, who filed a frivolous application, from receiving any benefit under the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). This means, if the Immigration Judge finds that you filed a frivolous application, you will be permanently barred from receiving benefits like, asylum, adjustment of status, and temporary protected status, etc.
