US Proposes Rule to Suspend Airlines Transporting Aliens with Fraudulent Documents

Summary

The US Immigration and Naturalization Service proposes a new rule to penalize airlines that transport aliens with fraudulent documents, aiming to prevent individuals from entering the country using false documents, and will initially fine carriers under the Immigration and Nationality Act, and may cancel contracts if performance does not improve, ultimately issuing a notice of intent to suspend airline privileges if fraudulent transport continues.
