A major immigration fraud investigation in the United States has once again brought back focus on how fake job offers and fabricated staffing arrangements were allegedly used to manipulate the H-1B visa system. The case is now part of a wider government crackdown that could lead to the denaturalisation of 17 naturalised US citizens.
The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has launched legal action, accusing the individuals of obtaining citizenship through fraud, false statements, or concealment of key facts during the naturalisation process. One of the key accused named in the case is Neeraj Sharma, an Indian-origin CEO who is set to lose his US citizenship over H1-B visa fraud.
