• Serving as a point of contact to receive information relating to instances of suspected immigration fraud or abuse. The Fraud Program receives referrals regarding improper activity by aliens, practitioners, and immigration consultants from many sources, including the public. Referrals to the Fraud Program may be sent via e-mail to EOIR.Fraud.Program@usdoj.gov.
• Coordinating with federal and state law enforcement entities and disciplinary authorities to ensure that cases of fraud and abuse are appropriately investigated and prosecuted.
• Coordinating with EOIR’s Attorney Discipline Program in cases that call for the discipline of immigration attorneys and non-attorney practitioners who represent aliens before the immigration courts, the Board of Immigration Appeals, and the Department of Homeland Security.
• Conducting Fraud Program training for EOIR employees and providing guidance and resource materials regarding fraud and abuse issues on an ongoing basis.
