Immigration courts
nationwide are continuing to adjudicate detained cases. Court functions that
support the detained caseload will continue, but other functions are suspended.
For specific information about a particular court, please visit http://www.justice.gov/eoir/ICstatus.htm
The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) is processing emergency stay requests as
well as cases where the alien is detained, including case appeals, motions,
federal court remands, and bonds. The stay line is open (for emergency stay
calls only), but all other telephone lines have been switched to closed status.
The BIA Clerk’s Office staff is accepting all filings and will be open Monday
through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m.
During the government shutdown, the Office of the Chief Administrative Hearing
Officer will maintain its ability to issue subpoenas and accept for filing any
complaints that must be filed to comply with statutory deadlines.
