Overview
- Use EOIR’s Automated Case Information System or the DOJ hotline at 1-800-898-7180; both require your Alien Registration Number to pull hearings, decisions or active orders.
- Contact the immigration court handling your case to confirm whether a case is open or an order exists, noting that staff do not provide legal advice.
- Ask ICE to verify your status if you have been under supervision or previously reported to the agency, which can confirm whether an order is on file.
- Submit a FOIA request with Form G-639 to obtain your complete immigration record, including notices, court decisions and any deportation orders.
- ICE records reviewed by TRAC indicate roughly 234,000 deportations from January through September 2025, highlighting the importance of checking case status.
