I Applied for a US Passport and Now They Are Investigating Me

This year for the first time in my career as an Immigration Attorney, I’ve been contacted by multiple individuals who have gained US Citizenship without a problem, but upon applying for a US Passport, are being investigated by the US Passport Office for their immigration status. We knew that a De-Naturalization Task Force had been established to strip citizenship from those whose basis for being Permanent Residents was fraudulent. However, we had not seen this coming.
