About the Broward Transitional Center
The Broward transitional center is a privately owned Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facility in Florida. It houses male and female undocumented immigrants who are classified as low-security detainees. These are people without criminal records or any history of violence/violent crimes.
GEO Group-owned facility in Pampano Beach holds undocumented immigrants awaiting immigration court trials. The center also temporarily holds new arrivals into the USA seeking asylum.
If you know someone in ICE custody, they might need the help of a Boynton Beach immigration lawyer to handle their case. A skilled immigration lawyer can represent them before an immigration judge and help prevent them from getting deported.
Broward Transitional Center Address and Phone Number
The precise location of the center is 3900 North Powerline Road, Pompano Beach, Florida 33073. To inquire about a detainee or pass across any information to them, you can call the center at (954) 973-4485 from 8 AM to 4 PM, and your inquiry will be attended to
However, it would help if you had basic information about the detainee ready when you call. This includes but is not limited to their name, date of birth, and country of origin.
Broward Transitional Center Visitation Hours
The allowed visitation periods vary depending on who is visiting the detainee. Friends and family can only visit detainees on Saturdays and Sundays between 8 AM to 9:45 AM and 2 PM to3:45 PM. Calling ahead may help you get a better idea of if and when exactly you will be able to see the person you want to
On the other hand, attorneys can visit immigrant detainees every day of the week. During business days, they can visit between 7 AM and 7:30 PM, while on Saturdays and Sundays, visiting ends earlier at 5 PM. The same visitation hours apply to virtual legal visitation.
Consular officials from the detainee’s country of origin and clergy may visit at any time. It is, however, necessary for clergy members to inform the Chaplain’s office before visiting. Similarly, the consular officials should make arrangements with the ICE Supervisory Deportation Officer.
Immigration Court Information at Broward Transitional Center
You may contact the court directly at 1-800-898-7180 to discuss a matter with them. The U.S. Attorney General appoints the judges that decide immigration cases. They can determine whether there are legal grounds for deporting an individual or whether the detainee deserves immigration benefits. The US ICE usually has experienced lawyers representing them in such matters.
Hiring an adjustment of status lawyer with the requisite experience could help you process your residency status so that you are no longer an undocumented immigrant. If your application is rejected, you can appeal and avoid removal proceedings with the help of an experienced deportation defense attorney.
How to Send Money to a Detainee
Generally, detainees can receive funds via mail, but it must not be in the form of cash. It could be in the form of cashier’s checks or money orders. The officer in charge will deposit the money in the appropriate account and issue a receipt. However, a Broward Transitional Center warden can provide better guidance before sending packages or money to detainees.
