How do I check whether someone is in Groesbeck?
Enter the A-number and country of birth in the ICE Online Detainee Locator at ice.gov/locator, or the first name, last name and country of birth. Spelling must match the detention record, so try name variations. Then call (254) 729-2674 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. and mention hyphenated names or aliases. If that fails, ICE's Houston Field Office is at (281) 774-4816. Make sure the result says Groesbeck; if it names another site, find it in the ICE directory.
Who can visit, and on which days?
ICE lists Friday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Each person gets two 30-minute non-contact visits a week, 1 hour in total. Two adults may come per visit, and every adult must be on the approved list. ICE does not explain how to join the list, so call (254) 729-2674. Hours are marked subject to change under a COVID-19 protocol. If you must travel 150 miles or more one way, send the Warden a written request for a special visit, normally 1 hour long.
Can children come, and what should we wear?
Visitors aged 16 or 17 must be on the list but do not count toward the two adults. Children under 16 need not be listed. Both groups must come with a listed adult, and ICE also says that adult must be a parent, legal guardian or legal counsel, so an aunt or grown sibling may not qualify. From age 12, shorts of any kind are barred, skirts must reach mid-thigh when seated, and men need sleeved shirts. For a baby or toddler, bring two diapers and one bottle only.
Where do letters, legal mail and money orders go?
ICE prints separate routes. General mail: JailATM.com – Limestone County Detention Center, full name/A-number, 2830 S. Hulen St. Box 809, Fort Worth, TX 76109, which rejects parcels and bulk mail. Legal mail: marked Legal Mail with name/A-number, to 910 Tyus Road, Groesbeck, TX 76642. Official documents: same address, Attn: Business Office / Inmate Trust Funds. Money orders by U.S. mail: Attn: Inmate Trust Funds, full name/A-number; ICE gives both 910 Tyus Road and 910 North Tyus Street, so confirm at (254) 729-2674. Letters must show your name and address. Online deposits use JailATM.com. Do not mail cash.
How do messages, the court and a lawyer work here?
No calls come in, so leave urgent messages at (254) 729-2674 with the full name, A-number, and your name and number. Tablets carry non-confidential messages through JailATM.com. Commissary and phone accounts are not described; ask the facility. The control list of October 1, 2026 places Limestone Detention Center under the Conroe Immigration Court; verify with the hearing lookup guide or 1-800-898-7180.
