When an illegal alien is being “removed,” the alien’s passport in U.S. Government possession is returned to the issuing government, not to the illegal alien. If the illegal alien’s departure is voluntary, the passport is allowed to be returned to the alien. The U.S. Government holds the passport of H.B., an illegal alien who must leave the country.
  1. H.B.’s departure is not voluntary if H.B.’s passport is allowed to be returned to H.B.
  2. If H.B.’s passport is not returned to the issuing government upon H.B.’s departure, then H.B. is not being removed
  3. H.B.’s departure is not voluntary unless the passport is allowed to be returned to H.B.
  4. If H.B.’s passport is not allowed to be returned to H.B., then H.B.’s departure is not voluntary
  5. If H.B. is being removed, then H.B.’s passport is to be returned to the issuing government
Explanation
Answer: A - This question is a negative lead question, so the correct response is the only response option that CANNOT be validly concluded. According to the third sentence, if H.B.’s departure is voluntary, then the passport is allowed to be returned to H.B. Based on this information, Response A is invalid.

Responses C and D are both valid and are supported by the information in the third sentence that the passport is allowed to be returned to H.B. if H.B.’s departure is voluntary. Responses B and E are valid and are supported by the information in the second sentence that H.B.’s passport will be returned to the issuing government if H.B. is being “removed.”
