how to recognize immigration fraud

HOW TO RECOGNIZE

IMMIGRATION FRAUD

Immigration

fraud is a silent

epidemic

sucking the life

blood out of

many deserving

immigrant

families.

There are

common

patterns of

immigration

scams.






Knowing these patterns can

help you and your family avoid

becoming another victim of

immigration fraud.






The more you learn what to look

out for, the less you remain

vulnerable to the schemes of

immigration con artists.






HERE ARE THE

5 MOST COMMON

IMMIGRATION

SCAMS






FALSE FRIENDS

1






Most immigrants to the United States

are often defrauded by people they hire

to help them: friends, lawyers,

immigration consultants, visa

consultants, translators, and notarios.






Many people

who offer

unsolicited

advice might not

be able to help

you and your

family properly –

and that's if they

don't have a

hidden motive. http://www.bataraimmigrationlaw.com





Honest immigration lawyers and

paralegals are not likely to approach

you. They're usually busy helping to

guide others to follow the best path to

permanent residency.






IRON CLAD

PROMISES

2






Nobody can ever guarantee

you a 100% outcome.






Immigration experts, consultants

and attorneys alike,

are not in a position

to guarantee an absolute victory.






When you meet an advisor who

makes definitive promises, he

probably doesn't care if you take

actions that could destroy your case

permanently.






On the other hand, when you choose

to hire someone who discusses all

your options honestly, you increase

your chances for immigration success.






INSIDER

CONNECTIONS

3






When you’re hoping to enter the U.S.

legally, it’s tempting to listen

when you meet someone who says,

“I have a friend in the Immigration Service who can help.”






They may even offer to help

you present a bribe to a

U.S. government official.






Attempting to bribe a

government official is

considered a crime.






If you're

solicited by

one of these

insider con

artists, walk

away as fast

as you can.






MINOR DETAILS

4






When it comes to submitting

documents, refuse to lie or make up

facts on any documents you submit

to the United States government.






Immigrant agents are

trained to spot false

facts and omissions.

.






Most likely, if you try to lie, they will

learn the truth and you will be denied

residency – and deported - with little

hope of reversing the decision.






You might even

be charged with

criminal fraud,

leading to jail

time and hefty

fines.






UNQUALIFIED

ADVISORS

5






Perhaps the most

important

challenge in your

immigration

journey is choosing

an advisor who is

truly qualified to

help.






Carefully select a representative who truly

understands immigration law.






Lawyer websites are important

clues. They provide insights on

an attorney’s experience

and areas of specialty.






If you decide

instead to hire a

non-lawyer

immigration

specialist, ask

for references

and check them.






It's better to be safe

than sorry.






CONCLUSION






Those who prey

on immigrants will

assume you are

scared.

They expect you

to be too afraid to

seek legal advice

or report them to

legal authorities.






Your best protection is

to know how to recognize

the signs of fraud before

you hire someone to help you.






Then - and only then - should

you choose an attorney (or

immigration assistant) to help

guide you and your family.
