Default Religious Worker Benefit Fraud Assessment Summary

USCIS Office of Fraud Detection and National Security substantiated the perception based upon experience that the immigrant religious worker classification has a high rate of fraud. This same perception exists for the nonimmigrant R-1 classification

So one third they could prove were fradulent, and of the remaining some were not and some were not provable.

I am shocked!

But amusing that you set in a category that has fraud potential written all over it and then are surprised when you find it.

But then 2/3 are not fraud, so the majority are OK

I'm surprised the Jedis haven't taken off over here? Well not literally, that would involve X Wing fighters with impulse drives, but you know what I mean...

Actually no, 2/3 they could not prove, so they might just be a bit cleverer.

What was the name of the hook guy in UK, eventually got deported. Always struck me as the one to go for if I was looking for such a thing.

I put that I was a Jedi on my last UK census. Should I admit it to the USCIS as a crime of moral turpitude?

Nah. I was one of the (mostly) law-abiding two-thirds. No benefit frauds for me. I slipped up.

If you are, not quite sure why there would be a problem.

Old enough to remember at school that if you tried anything other than C of E, RC and maybe at a pinch Jewish, then that was a CIMT punishable by detention.

That's the point, I said I was Jedi but I'm not really. I'm morally turpitudinous.

There again, how many people tick the C of E box and they're not really that either. I suppose it's no worse.

If it worries you, you could convert?
