If you do not want to post the bond in-person yourself, you can also have a licensed immigration bond agent post the bond for you. For a small fee, ranging from 2% – 10%, an agent can post the bond for you electronically, so that you do not have to travel to the ICE-ERO facility. This process is typically faster and easier than posting a bond yourself.

Not every ICE detention facility allows you to post an immigration bond in Colorado. If you would like to post an immigration bond it must be done at an ICE-ERO facility that accepts immigration bonds.
You can post an immigration bond through a licensed immigration bonding agent. That agent can post a bond for you electronically for any detention facility in Colorado and around the US.
Video transcript: An Alien Registration number (also referred to as A-Number) is a unique identification number assigned to a non-citizen. It can be a seven-, eight- or nine-digit number. Each immigrant receives an A-Number from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). This number is extremely important as it is required on all immigration documents and paperwork.
