Michigan Immigration Bonds
If someone you know is in ICE custody in Michigan, start by confirming where they are being held. If an immigration bond has already been set, Amistad can help you with the next steps.
Where Is the Person Being Held in Michigan?
Michigan has several county facilities connected to immigration detention and detained immigration proceedings. Start with the location you recognize below.

A county-operated correctional facility used to house people in ICE custody.
Chippewa County Correctional Facility

St. Clair County Jail

Not Sure Where the Person Is Now?
The place where someone was arrested may not be where they are currently detained. ICE can transfer a person between facilities, including to another state. Use our step-by-step locator guide before traveling.
Arrest Location May Not Be the Detention Location
Someone taken into immigration custody in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Ann Arbor or another Michigan community may later be detained somewhere else. Before traveling, sending documents or following facility-specific instructions, confirm the person's current detention location.
Detention Facility, ICE Office and Immigration Court Are Different
