To ensure adequate time to process visitors through security, all visitors must arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled visit time.

Visitors must arrive no later than 6:30 p.m. to be guaranteed a visit.

All visitors must have a U.S., State or Federal, issued identification document, or foreign passport with a valid U.S. visa to be admitted.

Only three visitors will be allowed in at one time unless prior approval by the Facility Administrator (exception, a baby in adult arms will not be counted as a visitor).

Minors who are visiting the facility must be accompanied by an adult guardian (18 years or older). Minors must not be left unaccompanied in the waiting room, visiting room or any other area.

Attorney Visits

Legal representatives of detainees are authorized to visit their clients 24 hours a day, in person.

Virtual legal visitation can now be scheduled in advance through ERO eFile during the hours of:

8 a.m. to 10 a.m. or 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Monday through Friday.

A list of pro bono (free) legal organizations will be posted in all detainee housing units and other appropriate areas. This list shall be updated quarterly. If a detainee wishes to see a representative or paralegal from that organization, it is the detainee’s responsibility to contact them for an appointment.

Video Teleconferencing

Legal representatives may request video teleconference (VTC) meetings or confidential legal phone calls with their clients or prospective clients through ERO eFile for all scheduled appointments. All scheduled appointments through ERO eFile will receive confirmation notifications through ERO eFile.

Please see the flyer for details.

Appointments are subject to availability during the following times:

8 a.m. to 10 a.m. or 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.

Monday through Friday

All appointments through ERO eFile will include the:

Legal representative’s full name

Legal representative’s contact information, including phone number(s) and email address

Detainee’s name

Detainee’s alien number (otherwise a search may be done utilizing the detainee’s name, date of birth, and country of birth)

In some situations, a legal representative may also be required to confirm the detention facility location of the detainee

Legal representatives should notate their meeting platform (Microsoft Teams/Webex/Zoom/Google Meet), the meeting link, meeting ID and the passcode in the Virtual Meeting Information section for the appointment in ERO eFile. If you are requesting a phone call only, please notate accordingly and provide the phone number the facility should call. (This is required before being able to select an available appointment time.)

Appointments will require the following attachments uploaded in ERO eFile (otherwise appointments may be subject to cancellation):

A scan of the legal representative’s government issued identification

A scan of the legal representative’s identification or documentation reflecting their status as an active legal representative, such as a state bar card, attorney license, paralegal license, or similar legal status

A copy of the attorney’s ERO eFiled G-28 (unless this is a pre-representational visit)

If a legal assistant is the only legal representative to join the call, the email should also attach a letter of authorization on the firm’s/organization’s letterhead and a scan of the assistant’s identification

If a legal representative is making a request consistent with PBNDS 2011 Section 5.7 (V.N.1) and Section 4.3 (V.FF), the legal representative must upload the written request in the Attorney Authorization Letter field and the Professional Licensure/Curriculum Vitae to the Medical/Mental Health Evaluators field.

Legal representative’s failure to abide by the Virtual Attorney Visitation guidelines may result in the immediate cancellation or termination of a VTC session and/or suspension of future requests.

Please note appointments may be scheduled up to 2 weeks in advance, but no later than 24 hours prior to the appointment. Appointments are on a first-come basis. If scheduled appointments are no longer required, please cancel or reschedule the appointment in advance. Appointments are scheduled in 60-minute intervals. Legal representatives are not limited on the number of VTC appointments they can request, but generally legal representatives are not permitted more than one 60-minute appointment with an alien in a single day. Two 60-minute appointments may only be booked back-to-back with a single alien if the facility can accommodate it. Otherwise, the facility may have to cancel the second appointment; you will be notified from ERO eFile of the cancellation. If the appointment is an initial intake or consultation and a three-hour window is required, please contact the phone number below . Scheduling and applicable rules are subject to change pending demand and availability.

Please note the facility reserves the right to cancel or reschedule appointments in the event of safety/security risk at the facility and also to ensure equal access to legal visitation by other legal representatives and aliens.

The same guidelines for in-person attorney/client visits apply to VTC meetings and legal calls. Only legal representatives, legal assistants, and interpreters are allowed; no family or friends of the clients are permitted. The attorney and/or his/her agents may contact outside interpretation services during the call or session. The sessions are confidential; a visitation officer will be stationed outside of the confidential room to ensure security by standing out of earshot but within eyeshot. The officer will knock 5 minutes before the cut off time.

As an alternative to using ERO eFile or if additional appointment availability is needed, attorneys may call (760) 561-6208. Once the facility confirms the appointment time, you will receive an appointment confirmation from ERO eFile. Attorneys should login to ERO eFile, open the appointment and enter the video or phone call information (for all remote visits) into the Virtual Meeting Information section, no later than the day before the appointment. Appointments that do not contain the meeting information may be subject to cancellation.
