ICE arrests are spiking again, according to data DHS released more than three months late.

08/04/2026

Over the past few weeks, there is an increase in reports of individuals being detained by DHS at U.S. airports during domestic travel. This is occurring across the country, including in Texas, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, New Jersey, and Virginia. Impacted individuals include those whose lawful status has expired but may have timely filed adjustment of status applications or asylum applications which would allow them to be in a period of authorized stay. Reports include individuals being detained who do not have criminal records and who have valid work authorization or advance parole documents. Consult with an experienced immigration attorney before making any travel plans.

Yesterday, the Department of State published a final rule in the Federal Register making permanent the visa bond program established on August 11, 2025. Under the program, certain visitor visa (B-1/B-2) applicants from designated countries may be required to post a bond of up to $20,000 as a condition of visa issuance, as determined by consular officers. See the list of currently affected countries here: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/visas-news/countries-subject-to-visa-bonds.html

A draft notice published Friday in the Federal Register says a nearly year-long review “provided sufficient data” to suggest the bond program effectively enforces compliance with visa conditions, and would be made permanent.
