Another H-1B crackdown? US widens fraud investigation as alleged visa abuse comes under scrutiny in Texas
In Texas, the DOL OIG has expanded its H-1B fraud investigation, with Sara Gonzales actively involved in exposing potential fraud.
The US Department of Labor (DOL) has intensified its investigation into alleged H-1B visa fraud in Dallas, Texas, in collaboration with commentator Sara Gonzales and Blaze TV. The DOL announced on August 13 that Inspector General Anthony P. D’Esposito conducted door-to-door inquiries at a multi-story building housing over 500 approved H-1B applications.
Many of the businesses within the building appeared inactive, with locked doors and unlit offices. Gonzales, in a video shared on X, confronted a person she identified as an "H-1B visa scammer," who had previously called the police on her. She stated that she "brought the law to him" during the confrontation. The DOL emphasized that fraud in foreign labor programs will not be tolerated and warned against H-1B visa fraud.
