Federal grand jury on Feb. 15 indicted Sheng Feng Sun (a.k.a. Joe Sun), 45, of Roswell, Ga., and Sang Hun Oh (a.k.a. Michael Oh) 35, of Norcross, Ga., with conspiracy, immigration document fraud and money laundering related to a scheme to sell, for a fee of $10,000 or more, non-immigrant visas to non-qualifying aliens. The indictment also seeks forfeiture of all proceeds of the alleged scheme. Sun and Oh are principal officers of Edgewood College of Georgia in Norcross.
The College is a vocational school that teaches English as a second language and provides training in traditional Asian medicine. Sun and Oh are alleged to have submitted false non-immigrant visa applications to the federal government. These visa applications allegedly claimed fraudulently that Edgewood College planned to hire the aliens named in the applications for skilled labor positions, when the aliens had no association with Edgewood College.
The indictment further alleges that to maintain the illusion that the aliens who obtained
fraudulently issued skilled worker visas were actually employed by Edgewood College, Sun and
Oh issued Edgewood College paychecks to the subject aliens, who were then obligated to return.
