In this video, we explain that although asylum seekers are generally protected by immigration laws, that protection is not absolute. A person could be detained by ICE agents if: – They commit a crime. – They are under investigation. – They are part of an immigration raid.
However, having applied for asylum may help you get released, especially if you have good moral character and can show that you are in an active immigration process.
If you do not have legal status and fear returning to your country, consider the option of asylum and seek legal guidance in a timely manner.
