Know Your Rights: Immigration Encounters
Everyone in the U.S. has rights, regardless of immigration status. Knowing how to respond to ICE encounters at home, work, or in public can help protect you.
If ICE comes to your door, **do not open it** unless they have a judicial warrant. You have the **right to remain silent** and **not sign anything** without legal advice. At work or in public, you can refuse questioning and ask if you are free to leave. Document encounters and seek legal help if detained.
Understanding ICE Enforcement
U.S. immigration enforcement priorities have shifted, affecting individuals based on their immigration status and legal history. Understanding your rights and possible legal options is critical.
Certain individuals may be subject to immediate removal, including those who have been in the U.S. for less than two years, those with prior removal orders, and those convicted of serious crimes. However, others are entitled to hearings before an Immigration Judge, where they may have legal avenues to stay in the country.
If you have a pending immigration case, criminal record, or concerns about your status, seeking legal advice is essential.
