SFILEN Official Tip Sheet
REPORT ICE AND HELP PROTECT YOUR COMMUNITY. CALL (415) 200-1548
If ICE comes to your home, workplace, or neighborhood, report this action by calling (415) 200-1548 and send help to those impacted.
IF ICE COMES TO YOUR DOOR
- Do not open your door. ICE cannot come in without a legal search warrant signed by a judge. A DHS warrant is not enough. If they do have a legal search warrant, it should be slipped under the door.
- Remain silent. Say “I plead the fifth amendment and choose to remain silent.”
- Do not sign anything. Do not sign any forms without an attorney present.
- Call (415) 200-1548 to report ICE and protect your community.
IF ICE APPROACHES YOU ON THE STREET
- You have the right to refuse to give them your ID and name.
- You can refuse to answer their questions. If they detain you, you can ask for an attorney.
- You can ask “Am I arrested?” If the answer is no, you should ask him or her if you can leave. You do not need to give them any information regarding your legal status in the U.S.
- Call (415) 200-1548 to report ICE and protect your community.
