USCIS Warning of Guest Worker Fraud
In an interesting post on the USCIS website, the Service warned of
potential for immigration fraud. The posting states: "Although Congress
has been debating immigration legislation, all customers should be
advised that currently no temporary worker program exists for aliens
unlawfully present in the United States. Congress has not passed any
legislation that would create a temporary worker program. Therefore,
there are no benefits currently available because this program does not
exist. Customers should not pay any fees or fines to any person or
organization claiming they can help apply for or receive benefits for a
temporary worker program. Be wary of persons or organizations that claim
they can assist in applying for benefits that do not exist." GT
attorneys are working very hard to ensure the passage of a guest worker
program and will keep our clients informed of its progress through web
alerts and updates.
