US Fails to Vet 15,000 Immigrants Due to Security Error

US Fails to Vet 15,000 Immigrants Due to Security Error: Fifteen-thousand applications for immigration were not vetted by the FBI’s name-check database due to an error by Homeland Security, The Washington Times reported.

Before the security error was noticed, 175 immigrants were granted citizenship, the government admitted.

Since the error was discovered, all naturalization ceremonies have been halted and officers working for the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services have been banned from approving new citizenship applications.
