Simply because she was eligible when she applied. The article noted that she had procured visas on various occasions. Eligible immigrant status is not restricted to long-term or permanent visitors. She would eventually have been discovered, but the truth is, when people live quietly and don't draw attention to themselves, they are often overlooked while the agencies go after the folks who are committing crimes and such.
