JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) – A Sedalia company accused of defrauding immigrants has been ordered to stop doing business in Missouri.
Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster said in a news release that he obtained a temporary restraining order Tuesday in Pettis County Circuit Court against Immigration Forms and Publications Inc. Koster says the company also has operated under the names Immigration Forms and Services and the U.S. Immigration Center.
Koster alleges in a lawsuit that the company charges consumers fees ranging from $250 to $2,500 for immigration-related forms that they could have obtained for free. Koster also said some customers who paid for forms never got them or got the wrong forms.
Calls to the toll-free number listed on the company's website rang unanswered Tuesday night.
