Dear West Papuan Community Member,
We hope you are doing well and staying safe. The current administration's policies have significantly impacted the immigrant community, including our own here in the USA. To help you navigate these challenging times, we have compiled some important tips and resources to prevent deportation. Please read the following information carefully.
ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Statistics:
Arrests by Country of Citizenship and Criminal History:
- U.S. Criminal Convictions
- Pending Criminal Charges in the United States
- No Convictions or Pending Charges but Violations of U.S. Immigration Laws (including visa overstays and Visa Waiver Program violators)
This category includes individuals who have repeatedly violated U.S. law by reentering after deportation, immigration fugitives with an executable final order of removal, and international fugitives wanted for crimes committed abroad. For fiscal years 2021 and 2022, this also includes individuals apprehended while attempting to unlawfully enter the United States after January 1, 2021.
ERO Arrests Over Time: Historically, ERO most commonly arrests immigration violators with convictions involving DUI, drug possession, assault, and criminal (non-civil) traffic offenses such as hit-and-run or leaving the scene of an accident.
Arrests by Area of Responsibility (AOR): ERO has 25 field offices across the country, each headed by a field office director.
Tips and Resources to Prevent Deportation:
- Carry Your Current I-94 or Proof of Arrival at all times.
- Students: Always have your I-20 and ID with you.
- Seeking Immigration Assistance: Always carry a copy of your USCIS receipt.

Approximately 4,276 Indonesian citizens are expected to be removed from the USA. It is crucial to stay informed and prepared.
Stay safe and take care. |
