What Families in Ohio Need to Know
Immigration Bonds Are Different from Criminal Bail
Immigration bonds relate to federal immigration custody. A bond listed for a county criminal case may be a separate matter.
Some Facilities House People for Different Agencies
Some Ohio facilities house people for different agencies. Confirm that the information you are using applies to the person's ICE custody.
Where Is the Person Detained in Ohio?
Choose the facility you recognize. Each guide includes contact details, location information and a link to the relevant immigration court resource.

The Arrest Location May Be Different
Someone taken into ICE custody in Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati or another Ohio community may be held elsewhere, including outside the state. Check their current location before arranging a visit.
Three Places Families Often Confuse
The detention facility, ICE office and immigration court have different purposes. They may also be located in different cities.
Detention Facility
Where the person is held. Contact the facility about visits, mail and daily communication.
ICE Office
Handles immigration custody and enforcement matters. An ICE office address does not tell you where someone is detained.
Immigration Court
Handles immigration proceedings. Follow the person's current hearing-3 notice for the court location and attendance instructions.
If the Bond Has Already Been Set

Understand the Costs Before You Decide
Depending on the government's requirements, an eligible payer may post the full bond directly with ICE. Amistad offers a surety bond service using cash or qualifying property as collateral, subject to approval.
How Amistad Helps
We review the bond information, explain the financial requirements and prepare the documents. Once the requirements are completed and the bond is confirmed, we submit the surety bond through ICE eBonds.
Amistad does not decide bond eligibility or set the amount. ICE and the detention facility handle approval and release; timing varies.
Ohio Questions
Does an ICE listing mean a bond is available?
No. A detention listing helps identify custody information. Bond availability and the amount must be confirmed separately. For advice about eligibility, speak with a licensed immigration attorney.
Which immigration court is connected to these facilities?
EOIR lists the six facilities above under Cleveland Immigration Court's administrative control. The person's latest hearing-3 notice determines the location and format of their hearing-3.Official EOIR Court Information
Can I help if I live outside Ohio?
Yes. You can contact Amistad remotely to review the information and requirements for an immigration bond that has been set.
