DHS Wants Social Media Info from Our Clients

June 24, 2016 (1 min read)

Federal Register, June 23, 2016 - "DHS proposes to add the following question to ESTA and to Form I-94W: “Please enter information associated with your online presence—Provider/Platform—Social media identifier.” It will be an optional data field to request social media identifiers to be used for vetting purposes, as well as applicant contact information. Collecting social media data will enhance the existing investigative process and provide DHS greater clarity and visibility to possible nefarious activity and connections by providing an additional tool set which analysts and investigators may use to better analyze and investigate the case. ... Written comments should be received on or before August 22, 2016 to be assured of consideration."
