Do you know why all of the typed information would be surrounded by white rectangles? I would think that a photocopy onto security paper would put black typing directly on the security paper.

The white halo should not be there. Also if it is a “scanned and photocopied” document it would be a solid image file. There would not be a clipping mask with removable text when opened in Illustrator.
