What is the period of exclusion for a debarment taken under the Immigration and Nationality Act?
The ICE Suspension and Debarment Official (SDO) would determine the length of the debarment commensurate with the seriousness of the cause(s) and the period of debarment would depend on whether the violation was civil or criminal. For civil violations, the Cause and Treatment Code (CT Code) 08-INA-01 in the Excluded Parties List System (EPLS) states “Debarments are for one year, and may be extended for additional one year increments if continuing violations are found by the Secretary of Homeland Security or the Attorney General”. For criminal violations, the CT Code 08-INA-02 states “Debarments are for a specified term as determined by the debarring agency and as indicated in the listing.” See FAR 9.406-4.
