If ICE Agents Show Up at Your Door

  1. You do not have to open the door. If you do, stay calm – you have rights.
  2. Ask what they are there for (and ask for an interpreter if you need one).
  3. If they ask to enter, ask if they have a warrant signed by a judge and if so, ask to see it (through a window or slipped under the door).
  4. If they do not have a warrant signed by a judge, you may refuse to let them in. Ask them to leave any information at your door.
  5. If they force their way in, do not resist. Tell everyone in the residence to remain silent.
  6. If you are arrested, you have the right to remain silent. Do not sign anything until you speak with a lawyer.
