How to Post an Immigration Bond for Someone at Jack Harwell Detention Center (What to Bring and Payment Rules)

Posting an immigration bond comes down to two things: the right payment and the right location. Jack Harwell Detention Center is listed by the Center for Immigration Assistance (CFIA). To get the current address, phone number, and any facility PDF explaining how bond payments work, check CFIA's detention center pages or use the ICE detention facility locator.

CFIA's payment rule for ICE detention facilities is simple: you can't pay an immigration bond with just any form of money. Bring a money order, cashier's check, or certified check. Show up with something else, and you risk being turned away - losing precious time when every hour counts.

For bonds over $10,000, there's an extra rule: you must pay with a single cashier's check or a single certified check. Don't bring multiple checks to add up to the total. Don't plan to split the payment across separate instruments. Get one check for the full amount.

Here's what trips families up most: sometimes bonds are handled at the detention center itself, and sometimes you're directed to a separate ICE office. Check the Jack Harwell page on CFIA's site and download any available PDF, or use the ICE detention facility locator. These resources will tell you where bond payments are actually processed for Jack Harwell.

1. Open CFIA’s page for Jack Harwell Detention Center - look for the facility’s contact details and any downloadable PDF with the same information.
2. Scan for bond-posting instructions - the facility page or PDF may tell you whether bond payments are processed at the detention center itself or handled through another office.
3. Use the ICE detention facility locator as a backup - if you can’t find what you need on CFIA’s page, the ICE locator is another way to pull facility information.
4. If you still can’t confirm the right office, call for detainee help - some facility PDFs list an ICE ERO information line you can use for general detainee questions while you track down the correct bond contact.
