Since illelgal aliens can now obtain a CDL, how does this affect CIP? Does CIP require that the institution verify that the customer has a legal right to be in U.S.?

The new law doesn't go into effect until Jan 2004 as I understand it.

IMO CIP does not require you to verify if a person is here legally. The problem we are faced with is now that illegals can obtain drivers license, it is their passport to every other benefit available to legal residents, including being able to register and vote.

Where the heart is
You gotta wonder what Rep. Sensenbrenner thinks about this. As far as California banks, what can we do? A person can have a California DL and a valid TIN and still not be here legally. There is no way for us to know.

Retina scan anyone?

CIP does not require you to establish legal residence.

KYC does!

KYC EXCEEDS the CIP standards in many cases. In fact, I find it redundant.

If you have to file a W8-BEN form (for non-resident alien) for a person who has a CA drivers license for a new account, that SHOULD BE A RED FLAG!!!

Then again,

a real terrorist will use some type of US residential address. Only the fool (or klutsy) criminal would openly admit to having a foreign address when their intentions are not-so-good.

How are you dealing with Court appointed Public Conservators and Administrators? They should not have to give their personal information. 326 indicates that they are exempt from this requirement.

That's a good question. What are you California banks' doing about ID for public guardians? Also, in response to noting that someone may be here illegally; what does the bank care if they are here illegally or not. We only need to identify them right?

Status as citizen / resident / non-resident alien / illegal alien may factor into risk-based procedures on just how you're going to identify someone. Your institution may not want to make the distinction, and may assign them all the same (higher) risk level.
