When you think of street gangs, certain things come to mind.  Robberies, weapons and drug trafficking are commonplace.  However members of a Chicago street gang have been charged with passport fraud.

According to the US Department of Justice, members of the Belizean Bloods street gang have been indicted on charges of passport fraud.  Passport fraud is a problem that is seen all over the world.  At one time or another, most countries across the world have been affected by passport fraud.  The passport is a document that is constantly being upgraded to combat passport fraud.

Passport fraud is potentially dangerous because people who should not be able to travel between countries gain access.  Aside from allowing people who should not be allowed access into a particular country, passport fraud also enables individuals to illegally obtain other forms of identification.

US passports are among the world’s most secure passports.  However, that doesn’t mean that it is impossible to obtain a fraudulent US passport.  It is important that law enforcement agencies work in conjunction with the US Dept of State to combat passport fraud.

Fake US passports can create problems in many ways.  These fraudulent passports put the nation’s security at risk.  While the US passport is one of the most secure passports in the world, no country’s passport is 100% secure.  A couple was recently arrested by Delhi police after they had gone to apply for visas at the US embassy.  Both the man and the woman had two passports each.  According to the passport act, this is illegal.

As it turns out, the embassy discovered that in the past the couple had visited the UK and violated visa rules.  They were caught and then they were deported to India.  Once they returned to India, it seems that each of them illegal obtained a second passport.   Records also show that the man attempted to obtain a third passport under a fictitious name.

When the couple applied for a visa at the US embassy, it was discovered that they each had two passports.   Police have since recovered the passports and the pair has been booked.

Getting a US passport is easy if you are a US citizen.  However, obtaining a passport is not as easy for those who are not US citizens.  A woman, who happens to be a US citizen and holder of a US passport has been arrested by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers after trying to smuggle a 10-month old Mexican national infant into the United States.

The woman came in contact with CBP officers on Monday, November 14, 2011 when she reportedly presented a US passport card for herself at a border stop between the US and Mexico.  She also presented a US passport for her 16-year-old daughter.  She did not provide passports for the 3 year old girl and 10 month old infant that she claimed were her niece and nephew.  However, she did provide State of Texas birth certificates for the two children.

After further inspection, it was discovered that not only was the infant was not related to the woman, but that the infant was a Mexican national with no valid documentation to enter or reside in the United States.

The woman was jailed, her 16 year old daughter and three year old niece were returned to an adult family member.  As for the infant, his biological parents were contacted and they arrived to claim their baby and returned back to Mexico.

The last time that Miles Apollo Neumann Auster entered the United States, it was an as Australian citizen.  The next time that he enters the US, it will be as the first dual-citizen child of a multinational gay couple.

The child was born in Melbourne, Australia in the Spring of 2011.  Miles’ birth certificate states that he has two mothers, an Australian one and an American one.

Since Miles was born in Australia, he was automatically granted Australian citizenship.  In addition Miles’ parents hoped that since his other mother is American that he would be granted US citizenship as is the case to any other child born abroad to at least one American parent.

That was not the case.  While the US decision was still pending, the younger brother of his American mother, Rachael Neumann died.  The family got tourist visas, purchased tickets and attended the funeral in the US.

Upon arriving home to Australia, the family found out that Miles would indeed become an American citizen the next time a US customs agent stamps his visa.  This would make Miles eligible for a US passport.  There is one catch, the child must return before the April 12^th deadline; before his first birthday.

However, the cost of the flight for the family to travel to the US is approximately $5,000.  The family spent their savings on the most recent trip to the US, and is not sure if they can afford another trip to the states before April.

A US Birth Abroad certificate entitles a child of an American parent a US birth certificate, passport and Social Security if the child appears in person at the consulate.

A passport hike is coming soon.  Relax – that’s only if you have a Canadian passport.  The US passport fees don’t look like they are about to increase anytime soon – but you never know.  One thing is almost certain – passport fees won’t go down.

In 2012, the cost for a new Canadian passport is expected to go up to $225.  The ePassport will be valid for 10 years.

The new biometric passports will include an electronic chip that is encoded with personal data such as your name, gender, and date and place of birth.  A digital image of the passport holder’s face will also be embedded into the passport chip.

Currently, the price of a Canadian passport is $87 and it is valid for 5 years.  While the new adult passports are expected to be valid for 10 years, children passports will continue to be valid for 5 years.

The price of $225 has not been announced as of yet, but word has it that Prime Minister Harper paid $225 for a diplomatic ePassport.  This has caused people to speculate that the rate for all ePassports will be $225 starting in late 2012.
