US government commends Philippines for preventing 200 American registered sex offenders from entering.
The United States government has commended the Bureau of Immigration (BI) for preventing 200 American registered sex offenders (RSOs) from entering the Philippines in 2018.
Immigration Commissioner Jaime Morente said Friday the bureau was recently awarded a certificate of commendation by the US Embassy in Manila after registering the second highest number of excluded American RSOs throughout the world last year.
Mexico, which shares a land border with the US in the southwest, recorded the highest number of intercepted RSOs.
“I commend our officers deployed at our ports of entry for a job well done. Because of your vigilance and alertness, you were able to turn away these sex offenders to protect fellow Filipinos from possible exploitation,” Morente said in a statement.
The US Embassy’s citation specifically commended the BI’s port operations division (POD) as well as the airport operations section (AOS), travel control and enforcement unit (TCEU), and border control and enforcement unit (BCIU), which are all under the POD, for successfully implementing the “Angel Watch” program in the country’s ports.

U can get a I-130 visa but approval 98% Denial and getting back in no chances your other option is HK u may get stopped but usually lthey will question u and send u on your way let them know your wife is at the hotel in airport very rarely have I seen then deport. A reg citizen if the family is there waiting. Drop me your email if u can I’m going to open another private fb I eo know as fact the new BI regime so with that said ….
