How do I check if someone is held in Falfurrias?
Look the person up on ice.gov/locator with an A-number or exact name, plus country of birth. Then confirm with this Falfurrias center by calling (361) 325-3340 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. with hyphenated names, aliases and date of birth. For urgent messages, the ICE page says to ask for ext. 130, then leave the full name, A-number, and your name and callback number. Detainees cannot take incoming calls, so that message is the route ICE describes.
What are the two visiting days at Brooks County?
ICE's page, updated October 6, 2026, lists Sunday and Monday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Call (361) 325-3340 to schedule. Each person gets two one-hour blocks a week, and any visit counts as a full hour however short. Visits are non-contact. Unaccompanied visitors must be at least 18. Minors need a parent or guardian, who must prove the relationship with a birth certificate or court guardianship order. Adults need government photo identification, and electronics stay out of secure areas.
How do I send mail and property to Brooks County?
ICE's mail template leaves the address blank, showing only Detainee Name (A#), Address, City, State Zip. The facility's address is 901 County Road 201, Falfurrias, TX 78355, which ICE gives for money orders, so confirm it for letters on (361) 325-3340. Letters also need the A-number's last four digits and your name and address, and legal mail must be clearly marked. Packages, personal or cashier's checks, stamps and food are restricted. Travel or release items need Deportation Officer approval, so call the property officer first. Only legal mail follows someone after a transfer.
How do I add money or use the tablet messages?
Money cannot be handed directly to the person. ICE lists two deposit routes: online at accesscorrections.com, or a money order with the person's name, sent by U.S. mail to 901 County Road 201, Falfurrias, TX 78355. Do not mail cash, although anything received is processed into the account with a receipt. Non-confidential messages reach tablets through gettingout.com. The page says nothing about phone accounts or commissary, and people cannot take incoming calls, so ask the facility how outgoing calls are funded.
Who can tell me about the case and court?
ICE's page and EOIR's list do not assign this center to a court, so use the hearing notice or our hearing lookup guide. For case questions, ICE's page gives Harlingen_Outreach@ice.dhs.gov and the field office page Harlingen.Outreach@ice.dhs.gov; if the first bounces, use the second. A representative with a G-28 can identify the deportation officer through (956) 389-7500. ICE's page shows (202) 282-2000 as the field office line, while the Harlingen office page shows (956) 389-7884. The bond hearing guide covers release; see also Texas listings in the ICE facility directory.
