Understanding Welfare Fraud
Welfare or public assistance fraud occurs when you deceive the government in order to obtain welfare. For example, if you lied about how much money you had when applying for welfare or Medicaid, you may have committed welfare fraud. A conviction for welfare fraud can negatively affect your immigration status.
Welfare fraud charges usually include an additional charge of perjury. Perjury is an irreducible felony, which can make a non-immigrant inadmissible. Also, if the amount stolen is more than $10,000, the conviction will result in an aggravated felony, which will bar you from admission or result in deportation and permanent ineligibility for U.S. citizenship.
