What Are Immigration Bonds?
An immigration bond is a payment made to the U.S. government as a pledge for release.
It allows an individual to be released from detention while their case proceeds in court. The bond secures the individual’s promise to attend hearings and comply with all court requirements.
What Are the Different Types of Immigration Bonds?
For individuals who want to be released on a bond pending the completion of their case, several immigration bond options are available to consider, including:
1. Delivery Bond
This type of bond is granted when an immigration judge or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) approves a detainee’s release. This is done provided they agree to attend all future court hearings.
2. Voluntary Departure Bond
These bonds are for individuals granted permission to leave the U.S. voluntarily within a specific timeframe.
3. Facility-Specific Bonds
These bonds apply only to a particular detention facility. They are set based on the location where the person is being held, and the procedures may differ between facilities. This means the bond must be paid directly in line with the requirements of that specific detention center.

How Immigration Bonds Are Set
The amount and eligibility for immigration bonds are decided by either ICE or an immigration judge.
A person’s immigration history, criminal record, family ties, and strength of pending cases may influence the decision.
If ICE refuses a bond or sets an excessive amount, our lawyers can request a bond hearing.
At this hearing, argument and evidence will be presented that show why release is appropriate.
Strong presentation can make the difference between continued detention and the chance to return home to loved ones.
Why Immigration Bonds Are Important
Immigration bonds play a crucial role in the immigration process. They give detained individuals the chance to return to their families and communities while waiting for their hearings. This helps them prepare their cases more effectively with legal support.
It also allows them to continue working, caring for loved ones, and maintaining stability in their lives. Thereby reducing the emotional and financial stress associated with detention. Without bonds, many would remain in detention for long periods, separated from their families and unable to effectively defend their cases as they should.
