The United States Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) was a part of the United States Department of Justice which used to handle legal and illegal immigration and naturalization.
Paralleling some immigration concerns of today, back in the early 1900's Congress's primary interest in immigration was to protect American workers and wages: the reason it had become a federal concern in the first place.

 U.S. IMMIGRATION, SELECTIVE SERVICE & NATURALIZATION (Law Offices of Carl Shusterman)
The examination of a naturalization application filed by a man under 26 years of age who has not registered for Selective Service by the time of the naturalization examination must be continued to afford the applicant an opportunity to register.
If a male naturalization applicant between 26 and 31 years of age failed to register with Selective Service, the naturalization examination must be continued to give the applicant an opportunity to obtain evidence that his failure to register was not knowing and willful or that he was not required to register.
Naturalization applicants need only demonstrate that they were 26 years of age or older when they first entered the United States as immigrants to prove that they were not required to register with Selective Service.

 Dillingham v. Immigration and Naturalization Service
The Board of Immigration Appeals ("BIA") ruled that Dillingham was ineligible for such adjustment because of a prior conviction in Great Britain for simple possession of marijuana and cocaine, in spite of the fact that the conviction had been expunged pursuant to a British rehabilitation statute for first-time offenders.
Specifically, the Service contends that under INA § 212(a)(2)(A)(i) (codified at 8 U.S.C. § 1182(a)(2)(A)(i)),[FOOTNOTE 9] even apart from his conviction, an alien who admits having committed a controlled substance offense is rendered statutorily inadmissible and ineligible for adjustment of status.
Indeed, it is only the differential treatment by the government of persons seeking to avoid deportation on the basis of the jurisdiction from which they received expungements for their past offenses that gives rise both to the problem of uniformity and to the constitutional issue of equal protection.

Naturalization could be returned to District Offices with a closer monitoring of this program, to eliminate the continuous delays and avoid a repeat of the slow-downs which resulted from the Citizenship America initiative.
While the enforcement and service functions should be separated, the structure of the service functions and their location in the federal government should ensure that they have equal priority on our immigration policy agenda.
The immigration agency must recognize that organizations which work closely with immigrant communities have a deep understanding of the impact of immigration policies on the lives of the agency's customers, and should become key partners with the agency in the development and implementation of policies and procedures, on both the national and local level.

The Board of Immigration Appeals affirmed and a warrant was issued for Jama's removal.
