High number raises concerns about fraud

The administration has approved 99.5 percent of applications of those
who have applied for legal status under President Obama’s
nondeportation policy for young adults, granting legal status to more
than 250,000 formerly illegal immigrants.
Officials said they
expect the approval rate to drop as more cases make their way through
the system, as it takes longer to deny an application than to approve
it. Indeed, the approval rate already has dropped from 99.8 percent just
a month ago.



But
the high rate leaves others wondering whether the administration is
doing all it can to weed out fraud or potentially dangerous illegal
immigrants in DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals
program, as it’s formally known.
“You really have to wonder who they’re giving deferred action to, and what kind of risk they represent to us,” said Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Center for Immigration Studies.
“The screening process is much less for DACA than it would be for a
green card, and so it’s all that much more susceptible to fraud.”
