How can I apply for an Immigration Bond?

An Immigration Bond, also referred to as a delivery bond, is a form of financial guarantee to the US government that the person facing deportation will appear at all required immigration hearings. If the person fails to appear, the amount of the bond is forfeited to the government. In Texas, an individual facing deportation can apply for an Immigration Bond through the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office located at the US embassy or consulate in the country of origin. When filing an application, you will need to provide proof of identity, a detailed description of the reasons for your deportation, and the exact amount of the bond. The amount of the bond is determined by ICE officials and it can range from a few hundred dollars up to thousands of dollars. To secure the bond, you must provide the ICE office with a third-party surety. This is a person or company who agrees to pay the full amount of the bond if you fail to appear. In some cases, ICE may allow an individual to pay the bond themselves. However, this is rare, and you should contact an immigration lawyer to determine if you are eligible for self-bonding. An immigration lawyer can also help you determine the amount of the bond and provide guidance through the entire application process.

Para aplicar para una fianza migratoria, primero debe comunicarse con la Oficina de Inmigración y Aduanas (ICE) para ver si califica para una. Si cumple con los requisitos para una fianza, la persona debe ponerse en contacto con un agente de fianzas migratorias aprobado. El agente de fianzas puede brindar información sobre los tipos de fianzas y cómo aplicar. Además, brinda apoyo durante todo el proceso. En el estado de Texas, los solicitantes de fianzas migratorias también pueden comunicarse con el Consejo de Libertad Bajo Fianza para obtener información y ayuda, sin costo alguno. Esta organización trabaja para ayudar a las personas a determinar si califican para una fianza, seleccionar un agente de fianzas migratorias, y comprender los términos y condiciones de la fianza. La organización también ofrece documentos y pautas de ayuda para aquellos que deseen entender el proceso de fianza migratoria. Es importante notar que la cantidad que se cobra por una fianza migratoria depende de varios factores, que incluyen el país de origen, el tiempo estimado en el que el solicitante se presentó en los Estados Unidos, y el historial de inmigración de la persona. Una persona debe estar preparada para pagar la fianza completa antes de que el ICE la libere de la detención.
