Immigration polygraph: unusual situation proven by polygraph, immigration request was granted

Immigration polygraph: unusual situation proven by polygraph, immigration request was granted!

A Houston Texas attorney explained his client situation like this:
"Client will testify that she crossed into the US from Mexico in the company of her grandmother when she was 15. Client had in her possession an expired visa. Client relates that she showed the expired visa to a border inspector, that he drew a line across the visa and permitted her to enter the US. Client is now applying for permanent residence and must prove that her last entry was under inspection. Federal (Immigrations) is usually very polygraph-accepting. An Immigration Credibility Assessment polygraph examination is needed".

She passed, polygraph report was prepared professionally, request was granted.

Washington (state) polygraph examiner lies to prospective client-- so she chooses a different examiner!

Husband suspected wife of cheating. They agree that a polygraph will show the truth. Scouring the Internet, they find solidifying advice from many PEOA websites. They also learn the importance of choosing only an examiner that is a member of Polygraph Examiners Of America.

They arrange a price and appointment with an examiner, then call him back to ask if he is a PEOA member. He said yes. They then called PEOA to confirm his status and satisfaction history, as learned on the Internet.

Oops-- he is NOT a member!

They telephoned him, and told him why they were cancelling. Then they had an appointment with a real PEOA member.

Polygraph customers: if your chosen examiner has only an antique 'analog' polygraph, RUN!

Polygraph customers: if your chosen examiner has only an antique 'analog' polygraph, RUN!

Buyer beware - INSIST on a computer polygraph - here's what you need to know:

--From the 1950s to the 1980s, polygraph examiners used the old-fashioned analog polygraph instruments, which were nothing but a roll of chart paper and 4 moving pens.

--Each test produced more than 20 feet of paper of 4 wiggly lines, approximately 120 small body-reaction changes to each be hand-measured by the examiner

--In the early 1990s, about 20 years ago, computerized polygraph instruments arrived. No ink or paper problems, self-scoring, and far more accurate!

--Our Federal government polygraph academy changed to computerized in the mid 90s;
all police and sheriff polygraph units use computerized polygraph instruments;
to use an old antique analog now is almost criminally negligent.

--Almost no real examiner nowadays uses an old antique analog, but there are a few part-timers that will use them instead of the proper equipment, hoping that the untrained public might not know the difference. Don't be fooled!

--The following are secrets that part-timers who can only afford the old antique analog polygraph instruments ($200 to buy one on eBay, since virtually all professionals of the past 20 years have dumped them and instead use $5000 computer polygraphs) DON'T want you to know:

1. On the antiques, the examiner has to assign this point system to every body response on a chart, 40 responses on every chart of a 3-chart exam, so 120 slow hand-scorings total: +1, +2, +3, or -1, -2, -3. This rigid scoring is why there are so many final scores of 'Inconclusive' (Inconclusive= maybe lie, maybe truth, can't decide, too bad for the customer) when using the antiques.

2. Computerized models score body responses far more exacting, assigning fractional & more-exacting points such as '0.8', '1.7' or '2.6' to each of those 120 body response reactions to questions; those fractional differences are very critical when added up using a final scoring system such as the '-7 to +7 System' used by both types.

3. Plus, when the computer does the scoring, there are no personal 'helps' such as being too easy or too hard, and also: nothing can be missed.

4. While old antique analog polygraph instruments make up less than 10% of the instruments in use today, they account for 50% of the complaints of 'false positives' (where a polygraph examiner says 'Fail' and the examinee is not lying).

The bottom line: if an examiner can not afford modern equipment, not wanting to invest in the equipment best for his/her clients, that is a sign that you should call the next examiner.

Note: When attorneys need immigration credibility assessment polygraph exams for their client's federal hearings (immigration/asylum applicants bear the burden of proving their case to the judge or hearing officer), these federal personnel are typically very accepting of properly-prepared polygraph examination reports as our federal government is the world's biggest user of polygraph itself. PEOA's extensive nationwide public-awareness promotion of using lie-detection testing to prove an applicant's pleading is so thorough that virtually all such contacts are made through PEOA's many sites.

It is led by polygraph expert John Grogan's www.ImmigrationPolygraph.com, the foremost authority on immigration & asylum lie-detection.

What is 'Oculomotor Measurement Deception Detection Testing'?

Known as ODD or Oculomotor Deception Detection, it is a growing form of lie-detection that uses eye pupil changes & movement tracking to detect deception.

A pupil size (diameter) increase strongly appears to be indicative of lying. Other pupil response measurements such as dwell time and movement are also involved.

ODD depends on cognitive rather than emotional responses that polygraph depends on.

See www.OculomotorDeceptionDetection.com for more information.

Note: most polygraph examiners do not know of these 3 similar exams below as they are not taught by civilian lie-detection academies, so consider this your 'lesson of the day':

--A Lifestyle Polygraph asks the examinee questions that concern the applicant’s personal life and conduct, and can involve all aspects of present and past behavior. Questions asked could concern drug and alcohol use, sexual misconduct, mental health, family relationships, compulsive or addictive behavior, and more. A LifeStyle Polygraph looks for issues in an applicant’s private life for which he or she might be susceptible to blackmail or coercion, and/or whether or not that applicant can be trusted with sensitive information. A very detailed questionaire is involved.

--A CI or CounterIntellgence Polygraph asks only questions to determine whether the examinee ever had any involvement with or knowledge of espionage/sabotage/terrorism against the United States, unauthorized contact with representatives of a foreign government, or unauthorized disclosure of classified material. It is sometimes used to determine initial eligibility for a special assignment or special access, and is often administered to persons who already have Top Secret clearances. Usually there are no lifestyle questions included.

Almost all immigration-related polygraph exams nationwide are requested through PEOA!

When attorneys need immigration credibility assessment polygraph exams for their client's federal hearings (applicants bear the burden of proving their case to the judge or hearing officer), these federal personnel are typically very accepting of properly-prepared polygraph examination reports as our federal government is the world's biggest user of polygraph itself. PEOA's extensive nationwide public-awareness promotion of using lie-detection testing to prove an applicant's pleading is so thorough that virtually all such contacts are made through PEOA's many sites.

Need Immigration Credibility Assessment polygraph training? www.AmericanPolygraphAcademy.com offers EXHAUSTIVE training in this lucrative specialty, led by John Grogan's www.ImmigrationPolygraph.com, the foremost authority on immigration & asylum lie-detection. One-day seminars and at-home study material are both available.

ALERT for South Carolina polygraph examiners:

A South Carolina woman has telephoned several polygraph examiners this week. On those she was able to develop a rapport with, she then explained that she needed to -falsely- pass a polygraph. She would then turn in these fake results to the xxxxxxxx Board which would issue her license upon receipt of the favorable test report. A generous fee was offered to the examiners who declined to test.

PEOA will contact the xxxxxxxx Booard soon to see if such a polygraph report was obtained . . . .

Are you going to be taking a polygraph examination soon? Here are 11 tips to help improve its accuracy:

How To Increase The Accuracy of Your Polygraph Examination

1. Have a full night of sleep the night before.

2. Have no alcohol or unprescribed drugs in your system.

3. Do not arrive late or rushed for your exam.

4. No gum-chewing.

5. Answer Yes or No with your mouth only (do not nod or move your head when answering)

6. Remain still during the entire examination; no moving of hands, feet, neck, or anything other than your mouth.

7. Don't answer any questions louder or stronger than the others.

8. Sit in a position that will remain comfortable for a few 5-minute chart-collections.

9. No deep-breaths during the chart collection; breathe the same on all questions.

10. Insist that all testing be done on a modern computer polygraph (not on an old-fashioned antique 'roll of chart paper with 4 moving ink pens').

11. Drink plenty of water in the hours just before the testing.

Who are those guys on TV doing the polygraphs?

Television reality & relationship shows, documentaries, and criminal justice programs are increasingly using polygraph examinations as they are fascinating to the public. Almost without exception, it is always one of either the same two guys shown handling the lie-detection chores-- they seem to be on every channel.

Who are those guys on TV doing the polygraphs?

Handling mostly eastern US productions is Dan Ribacoff; his mostly western US productions counterpart is John Grogan.

These long-time friends are both multi-state polygraph examiners and private investigators. Many recognize Dan from "Tyra Banks', 'Steve Wilkos Show', and many others; you have seen John on 'For The Love of RayJay', 'Tool Academy', and many others.

Testing INCARCERATED persons: jails, prisons, mental hospitals, and other correctional facilities

Have you ever done testing of incarcerated persons, at jails, prisons, mental hospitals, or other correctional facilities?

This can be city, county, state, or federal.

It is estimated that more than 95% of examiners nationwide have NOT. It can be confusing, intimidating, and even a waste of time if you are not prepared.

PEOA has launched a promotional program that includes a website and other informative contacts, to increase work requests for those examiners that are interested in doing incarcerated testing.

Additionally, AmericanPolygraphAcademy.com has a VERY thorough training material package available that covers testing at places of incarceration.

Bicycle racer Floyd Landis now admits history of sport-drug use after failing drug test and then denying it for years; the connection to polygraph

Bicycle racer Floyd Landis now admits history of sport-drug use after failing drug test and then denying it for years; the connection to polygraph:

Not long ago, media personality Adam Corolla conducted a live-broadcast interview with Landis. Landis, still proclaiming his innocence after failing a publicized French drug test, strongly accepted Corolla's suggestion that he show America that he was telling the truth by taking a polygraph exam about such substance use.

Corolla then walked in an experienced polygraph examiner (John Grogan of Los Angeles) who had been selected for many other high-profile and celebrity matters both before and after this. Landis refused.

Since Landis had been using the drugs he was (then) denying, he would have failed the polygraph exam.

2. For when using the white 'stickies' on the palm instead of the steel fingertip type, make sure that the center gel has not evaporated (this is why they have expiration dates)

3. No gsr/eda at the fingertips or palms?
Use the steel/velcro connections on two TOES of the same foot instead. Toes, like fingers, are extemities that we can use

Like most TV polygraph re-creations, it was not technically correct (movements, attachments, rapid-paced and greatly edited as to allow for minimal TV time alloted), but served its purpose. Additionally, it stimulated calls to polygraph examiners nationwide for relationship matters in the days following its airing! John Grogan, the 'nation's most televised polygraph examiner', handled the chores.

How to Start a Polygraph Business

In an era filled with financial fraud, skyrocketing divorce rates, rising unemployment and a general sense of uncertainty among many employers and the public, a career in polygraph services may prove to be a foolproof venture. Reaching your goal of providing the truth to those who seek it requires some effort and time on your part, but the end result is certainly a viable and increasingly needed business in our modern era of straight-faced dishonesty.

1. Look into job openings or internships working with polygraph professionals. You can find leads like these at city courthouses or local police departments. Nothing beats hands-on experience, so following up on this step and showing that you are truly interested in developing your skills as a polygraph professional is a must.

2. Review technical schools that provide job specific training for polygraph experts. Taking the time to receive certification in your field will help you stand out as an attractive choice for clients seeking your skills. Decide on a school that works best for your current schedule and be sure to keep detailed notes as you pursue your education. You will find that the information you have written down from school will prove useful in the workplace

3. Gain the necessary knowledge and experience to confidently start your own polygraph business venture. Find the best place to purchase polygraph equipment and decide on the most effective way to launch your business. Decide whether your services are going to be web-based or a brick and mortar/face to face consultation. These kinds of decisions will help decide the focus and lasting direction of your business. Also, you should attempt to direct the focus of your business towards one area of expertise, be it local law enforcement, corporate assistance or state government.

4. Advertise in trade publications and sell through magazines that cater to law enforcement, security and licensed detectives. These industries will provide you with the most immediate business opportunities. Look into cost-effective ways to advertise your business, such as having an online presence, creating a direct postcard campaign, or simply open the phone book and start cold-calling places you feel might be in need of polygraph services.

Analog (old-style) polygraph instruments available coast-to-coast for TV/film needs, etc

Virtually all professional examiners quit using the obsolete 'analog' (roll of chart paper with moving pens) polygraph instruments since the first computerized instruments were available in the early 1990s. No more paper tears, ink problems, breakages and other problems! But some film productions find the antique-style equipment to 'look better' on film.

PEOA has members nationwide with working analog instruments available for these projects. Some require that you also 'rent' an examiner too, as some parts are often & easily broken (pens can now cost $200 each), and working with the ink and paper can be a challenge.
