The surety bond is an assurance for the state that the applicant (also known as the principal) will conduct their business while following all the rules and regulations of the state. Anyone who suffers damage or loss due to a breach in their contract with the immigration assistance provider may file a complaint. They will be compensated for their loss, with the surety company issuing a payout, which the principal must pay in full to the surety company.
