inputting identifying information into
the Verification Information System
(VIS), which executes immigration
status queries against a range of data
sources. If VIS returns an immigration
status and the benefit-issuing agency
does not find a material discrepancy
with the response and the documents
provided by the applicant, the
verification process is complete. Then,
the agency may use that immigration
status information to determine whether
