If immigration officers (ICE) come to your work place, they must have a valid search warrant or the consent of your employer to enter non-public areas. If you are\u00a0undocumented and immigration officers come to your work place, be aware of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Do <\/strong><strong>not panic and <\/strong><strong>do <\/strong><strong>not run <\/strong> If you are frightened and feel like you need to leave, you can calmly walk toward the exit.\n<ul>\n<li>If you are stopped, you may ask if you are free to leave. If the officer says no, do not try to exit the building.<\/li>\n<li>If you are questioned, you may tell them you want to remain silent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>You <\/strong><strong>have <\/strong><strong>the <\/strong><strong>right <\/strong><strong>to <\/strong><strong>remain silent<\/strong>. You do not need to speak to the immigration authorities or answer any questions.\n<ul>\n<li>If you are asked where you were born, or how you entered the United States, you may refuse to answer or remain silent.<\/li>\n<li>If you choose to remain silent, say so out loud.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.7em;\">If they ask you to stand in a group according to immigration status, you do not have to move, or you can move to an area that is not designated for a particular group.<\/span><\/li>\n<li>You may show a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nilc.org\/issues\/immigration-enforcement\/everyone-has-certain-basic-rights\/\">know-your-rights card <\/a>to an officer that explains that you will remain silent and wish to speak to a lawyer.<\/li>\n<li>You may refuse to show identity documents that say what country you are from.<\/li>\n<li>Do not show any false documents and do not lie.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>You have the right to speak to a lawyer<\/strong>. If you are detained or taken into custody, you have the right to immediately contact a lawyer.\n<ul>\n<li>Even if you do not have a lawyer, you may tell the immigration officers that you want to speak to one.<\/li>\n<li>If you have a lawyer, you have the right to talk to them. If you have a signed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uscis.gov\/g-28\">Form G-28<\/a>, which shows you have a lawyer, give it to an officer.<\/li>\n<li>If you do not have a lawyer, ask an immigration officer for a list of pro bono lawyers.<\/li>\n<li>You also have the right to contact your consulate. The consulate may be able to assist you in locating a lawyer.<\/li>\n<li>You can refuse to sign any\/all paperwork until you have had the opportunity to speak to a lawyer.<\/li>\n<li>If you choose to sign something without speaking to a lawyer, be sure you understand exactly what the document says and means before you sign it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><br \/>\n<div class='one_third et_column_last'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1991 size-full\" style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\" src=\"https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work.jpg\" alt=\"What If ICE Comes To Your Work Place?\" width=\"464\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work.jpg 464w, https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work-400x516.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 464px) 100vw, 464px\" \/><\/a>\n<a class=\"et_pb_button\" href=\"https:\/\/bccimmigration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/RIGHTS-Work.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Printable Version<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div><div class='clear'><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2042,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","inline_featured_image":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[76],"tags":[77,78],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>What If ICE Comes To My Work? - Immigration Law Center at BCC<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"All people living in the United States, including undocumented immigrants, have certain U.S. Constitutional rights.
