dfecretibri consular officer tctfe,: Post 9-11 Security Checks We asked Mr. Levey about some of the post 9-11 security checks on visa applicants. He said that the 20-day check will probably be abolished and that the Condor criteria will be updated. Homeland Security Mr. Levey commented that he does not think anyone has considered whether Homeland Security or the FBI will control the background security checks for visa applicants. When asked about judicial review for visa applicants, Mr. Levey said that this should not be a problem even if Homeland Security is tasked with doing visas. Mr. Levey said that Homeland Security needs to have more oversight over State in order to force State to change its culture and to force it to be more security minded. However, he thought that visa-issuing officers should continue to be Foreign Service officers. He made the analogy between new FSOs doing consular work and new doctors working in an emergency room - it's how you get bright people to do a demanding job for a few years at the beginning of their career path.
