Manhattan Socialite and Russian Spy Anna Chapman Under Arrest

Anna Chapman is the Russian spy who looks and acts very Bond girl like. Having lived and enjoyed the party life in Manhattan’s financial district, Chapman was very well accepted in the rich and famous fashion circle. All things come to an end though, when the foundation is built on lies and deception. This Russian spy is now under arrest for transferring key U.S. information to Russian agencies.


Arrested and Jailed


While under arrest, her bail plea has been rejected. Another problem that she has to face now is that her U.S. immigration visa has just expired. This effectively leaves her swimming in foreign waters. If the case against her is proved and she is convicted, not much will save her from U.S. laws. Immigration laws in the country are stringent and the penalties imposed on those who take it for granted are severe.


Chances Reduced


If you are intending to immigrate into the country, the best bet is to hire an immigration attorney who will be able to explain all the pros and cons to you. Immigration lawyers also help by filling out application forms accurately, ensuring that all the information is correctly provided so that there are not any chances of your application being rejected.


Hire an Attorney


An immigration attorney would have warned the sexy Chapman that her visa needed to be renewed. If this is not done on time, like Chapman, then you stand the risk of being deported due to illegal status in the country.
