What is an Immigration Consultant Bond?
Immigration consultant bonds are guarantees that protect the public. Specifically, they protect individuals against unlawful acts such as fraud and misrepresentation committed by an immigration consultant they have hired. For example, if you have falsified documents while providing a client with immigration consulting services, your client can file a claim on your bond which you must pay in full.
Surety Bond Claims Can Put You at Risk
As mentioned above, you’re responsible to pay any claims on your surety bond in full which can be as large as the bond amount (this includes legal costs). The indemnity agreement you must sign to get your immigration consultant bond is a legal contract that pledges your corporate and personal assets. These may be used to pay claims you cause by committing unlawful acts while providing your clients immigration consulting services. You can read our guide to learn more about how bond claims work.
