Timely Departure Act

Bill 119 HR 1837, also known as the "Alien Bond and Departure Act," aims to address the issue of nonimmigrants who overstay their visas in the United States. The bill proposes that aliens seeking admission to the US as nonimmigrants must pay a bond or cash payment as a form of security. This bond would serve as a guarantee that the individual will depart the US in a timely manner once their visa expires.

Additionally, the bill includes penalties for nonimmigrants who fail to depart the US within the specified timeframe. These penalties could include fines or other consequences for noncompliance.

The purpose of this legislation is to incentivize nonimmigrants to adhere to the terms of their visas and depart the US as required. By implementing a bond requirement and penalties for overstaying, the bill aims to address the issue of visa overstays and improve immigration enforcement. Overall, Bill 119 HR 1837 seeks to strengthen immigration policies and ensure that nonimmigrants comply with the terms of their visas to maintain the integrity of the US immigration system.
