Formerly known as the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS), the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is an agency of DHS or the Department of Homeland Security. It manages administrative tasks and helps defend the interests of national security. The USCIS facilitates the entry of visitors and legal immigrants, as well as the arrest and deportation of those who attempt to enter the country illegally. The Immigration Working Group is made up of border inspectors and guards, detectives, detention officers, immigration officers and deportation officers. Immigration officers inspect passports, investigate and interrogate people seeking to enter the United States and its territories. They keep strict data, prepare reports and assessments and process residence applications. It is the job of USCIS to determine if a potential applicant is eligible to enter the country. For those who entered illegally, the USCIS Border Patrol Department is responsible for the expulsion of these unauthorized persons from the state and the stopping of contraband goods.
