DHS Finds Staggering Fraud in Legal Immigration Cases After Enforcement Surge in Minnesota
1st October 2025
Federal authorities revealed what they called a shocking level of immigration fraud after a major enforcement surge in Minnesota, saying they found problems with nearly half of the cases they investigated.
The fraud spanned a variety of immigration programs, including high-skilled guest workers, student visas, fraudulent marriage and the Biden-era Uniting for Ukraine program.
In one case, they found a man who obtained a fake death certificate for his wife to advance his fraudulent application, despite still being married to her — and having another wife in Sweden.
