Immigration Advisory Program

Immigration Advisory Program

The Immigration Advisory Program (IAP), based on a program developed for the former INS originally known as the Immigration Security Initiative, is a pilot developed by Customs and Border Protection, which appropriated $2,000,000 in fiscal year 2005. The IAP teams at two European airports prevent undesirable people from traveling to the US. [House Report 109-079 - " [http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/cpquery/?&sid=cp109QAt80&refer=&r_n=hr079.109&db_id=109&item=&sel=TOC_85726& DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY APPROPRIATIONS BILL] ", 2006.] .

Since 2004, IAP inspectors have made more than 1,000 no-board recommendations for high-risk or inadequately documented passengers, which equate to approximately $1.6 million in cost avoidance associated with detaining and removing passengers, and $1.5 million in potential savings to air carriers.
