Fraudulent immigration services are a type of scam in which individuals who are not licensed to practice law in the United States or are not BIA-authorized present themselves as trustworthy resources for those seeking immigration assistance. 

• The City of Saint Paul is launching the Fraudulent Immigration Services Campaign, which will provide Saint Paul community members with information on immigration scams.
• The goal of the campaign is straightforward: inform the community about how to identify, respond to, and report fraudulent immigration services.
• This awareness campaign is financially supported by the Local Consumer Financial Protection Initiative at the Cities for Financial Empowerment Fund.
• This awareness campaign is a partnership between the Office of Financial Empowerment and the Immigrant and Refugee Program in the City Attorney’s Office.

Gateways for Growth Challenge (G4G) is an opportunity for localities to receive support from New American Economy (now American Immigration Council) and Welcoming America to improve immigrant inclusion in their communities. In the fall of 2020, Saint Paul and Minneapolis each received grants from the G4G Initiative. 

The G4G awards included the preparation of two data reports entitled New American in Minneapolis published in June 2021 and New American in Saint Paul and East Metro Area, MN  published in September 2021.  Based on findings from the reports, Minneapolis and Saint Paul initiated efforts to make each city more welcoming and supportive for immigrants and marginalized communities.
