Undocumented immigrants in the US have constitutional rights. When ICE agents come to your door, you don't have to open it unless they have a valid search warrant (a deportation warrant is not enough). Ask to see the warrant and check that it has your correct information and a judge's signature. You can refuse to speak to them, or speak through the closed door. You have the right to remain silent ("I choose to remain silent") and can show a "know-your-rights" card. You don't have to show documents that state your country of origin. Do not show false documents or lie. You have the right to speak to a lawyer, even if detained. Ask for a list of pro bono lawyers or contact your consulate. Don't sign anything without talking to a lawyer. You can request a free phone call to family or friends if you don't have funds after 10 days in detention. This information is not legal advice; consult an immigration attorney for your specific situation.

Konnen Dwa Ou: Si ICE VIzite Lakay ou
Moun ki pa gen papye nan peyi Etazini gen dwa konstitisyonèl. Lè ajan ICE yo vini nan pòt ou, ou pa oblije louvri l sof si yo gen yon manda rechèch valab (yon manda depòtasyon pa sifi). Mande pou wè manda a epi tcheke si li gen enfòmasyon kòrèk ou ak si yon jij siyen li. Ou ka refize pale ak yo, oswa pale nan pòt la fèmen. Ou gen dwa pou w rete an silans ("Mwen chwazi rete an silans") epi ou ka montre yon kat "konnen dwa ou". Ou pa oblije montre dokiman ki di ki peyi ou soti. Pa montre fo dokiman oswa bay manti. Ou gen dwa pale ak yon avoka, menm si yo arete w. Mande yon lis avoka pro bono oswa kontakte konsila ou. Pa siyen anyen san ou pa pale ak yon avoka. Ou ka mande yon apèl telefòn gratis bay fanmi oswa zanmi si ou pa gen lajan apre 10 jou nan detansyon. Enfòmasyon sa a se pa konsèy legal; konsilte yon avoka imigrasyon pou sitiyasyon espesifik ou.
