‘Deadbeat Nations’ Exploit Immigration Loopholes, Endanger Americans
February 5, 2019
WASHINGTON—The Immigration Reform Law Institute (IRLI), on behalf of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of State (DOS) that seeks agency records regarding the names of recalcitrant countries that refused to comply with their international obligations to accept the return of their citizens who were found to be ineligible to remain in the United States. The complaint also inquires whether DOS has taken any action to discontinue granting immigrant and nonimmigrant visas to these countries for noncompliance.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is responsible for the timely removal of illegal aliens from the United States once they are subject to a final order of removal. ICE, along with DOS, takes appropriate steps to confirm the country of citizenship of the aliens in question. Countries that refuse to accept or delay the acceptance of their nationals are considered uncooperative or recalcitrant.
