IMMIGRATION LAW AND BORDER CONTROL Course
Part A
1. Why do nations control immigration?
Nations control immigrations to manage the populations considering their resources and their citizens (Scaros, 2007). In this case, countries will allow immigrations of people and professions they lack and restrain those that they have; therefore, control of immigration is done as a balancing act in nations.
2. Why do nations control their borders?
The control of borders is done by nations to control the populations and things that get in and out of a country (Scaros, 2007). In this regard, a nation will only allow people and things that are legal and needed while restricting people and things that are not needed.
3. What could happen to a nation that had none of these controls?
Countries that do not control the immigration or their borders end up in chaos. There is infiltration of illegal immigrants with bad intentions such as drug trafficking and criminal activities. Also, there is infiltration of illegal substances such as drugs and other illegal things.
4. What document makes the Federal Government supreme in laws affecting immigration?
The constitution makes the federal government supreme in laws relating to immigration (Scaros, 2007). Different Acts within the constitution such as the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) and the Immigration Reform and Control Act empowers the federal government to regulate immigration.
5. Can states create immigration policies?
Respective states can make their immigration policies to be used within their jurisdiction.
6. Explain the function of the BIA. (NOT the Bureau of Indian Affairs)
BIA (Business Impact Analysis) identifies and evaluates impacts that can result in disruptions in business. The impacts are evaluated from financial aspects, life/safety, legal contractual, regulatory and reputation.
7. Explain the INA.
INA (Immigration and Nationality Act) entails different statues that are reorganized and structured to govern immigration in the United States.
8. What event has most influenced attitudes toward immigration law and border control in the 21st Century?
The September 11, 2001, attack on the United State by the al-Qaeda an Islamist terrorist group has shaped the 21st-century border control and immigration law.
9. Name two famous “Americans” born in other countries. (Which country?)
Arnold Schwarzenegger-Austria

Katerina can easily get a visa through employment to work in the United States. In this case, she can secure an H1-B visa that ensures as a foreigner she can work for a particular within the Unites State (Neumayer, 2010). In this case, she can get a visa when she will be working for family businesses. This approach will be a sure way of getting a visa and thus she can get a chance to live with her soul mate Juana.

The process of acquiring a work Visa USA can be affected by failure to meet the required requirements. In this case, Katerina can get a visa if she is only approved by the U.S Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS). Additionally, she needs to have a labour certification from the Department of Labor (DOL). Absence of the certifications and approvals will render bring issues in the acquiring of a visa.
