Immigration Articles >> Current Issues

Alien Smuggling: Unlike human trafficking which includes some type of force and/or exploitation, human, or alien, smuggling is generally voluntary.

E-Verify: E-Verify is an online database that allows employers to verify the work eligibility of prospective employees. Before its official launch, it was formerly a pilot project known as the Employment Eligibility Verification Program.

False Social Security Numbers used by Undocumented Workers: Many employers accept false social security cards and permanent residency cards as “proof” that individuals can legally work in the United States.

Form DS-160 Nonimmigrant Visa Application Form: Form DS-160 is a new visa application form that is issued by the U.S. Department of State (DOS). The purpose of Form DS-160 is to streamline and combine several of the current DS application forms into one form that can be submitted electronically.

Health Insurance in the United States: Health care in the United States is in general known to be very expensive. The reason for this is simply that health care is privatized and hospitals are run as for-profit businesses.

Illegal Immigration to the United States: The United States government estimates that there are over 10 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States.

Immigration Amnesty: Since the first immigration amnesty in 1986, millions of undocumented aliens, or illegal immigrants, have been granted permanent resident status in the United States. Critics claims that immigration amnesties entice an even greater number of illegal migrants, but there could be even more amnesties in the near future.

Immigration Consultants: An immigration consultant may be an expert in the field of immigration but without a law degree or any similar education. Many jobs within the immigration field require formal education, with the exception of immigration consultants.

Immigrants in jail: Learn about immigrants and criminal activity, such as crimes committed by immigrants in the United States.

Immigration Reform: Since the first immigration amnesty in 1986, millions of undocumented aliens, or illegal immigrants, have been granted permanent resident status in the United States. Critics claims that immigration amnesties entice an even greater number of illegal migrants, but there could be even more amnesties in the near future.
