How do I confirm someone is at Montgomery in Conroe?
Search the ICE Online Detainee Locator at ice.gov/locator by A-number and country of birth, which ICE calls the best method, or by exact name and country of birth. Locator data can be up to 8 hours old, so call (936) 521-4900, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., to confirm. The page lists (936) 520-5700 as the field office main line, while ICE's office directory gives Houston as (281) 774-4816. Joe Corley is a separate site, so read the facility name carefully, and use the ICE directory for any other name.

What should I know before I drive to Conroe?
Bring government photo ID, as ICE's locator brochure advises, and arrive 30 minutes early. Each person gets one non-contact social visit a week; two adults may share a booth and phone on request. From age 12, shorts are barred and skirts must reach the knee. Tank tops, sleeveless shirts, open-toe or open-heel shoes and Crocs are out. Phones, smart watches, purses, cameras, packages and strollers stay outside. For a baby, bring at most three diapers and two bottles. ICE warns the schedule can change without notice, so call (936) 521-4900 the day before.
How do I send letters, money and messages?
Address letters to Montgomery Processing Center, then the full name and last four digits of the A-number, at 806 Hilbig Road. Before sending a package, call the mail room supervisor at (936) 521-4900, ext. 4011. For money, use Access Corrections at 1-866-345-1884 or accesscorrections.com, or a money order sent by U.S. mail with the full name and A-number. Do not mail cash. Calls cannot come in, so leave urgent messages at (936) 521-4900. Tablet help is at gettingout.com. Neither commissary nor phone accounts appear on the page, so ask an ICE officer on site.
Is the immigration court in the same building?
The Conroe Immigration Court shares the Hilbig Road street address, at Suite 2-300, and its page says it sits in a DHS-controlled detention facility. The court phone is 936-520-5400. The control list of October 1, 2026 places Montgomery Processing Center under it. Check a case at 1-800-898-7180 or with the hearing lookup guide. Attorneys may visit 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily, and video requests go to MPC-Legal@geogroup.com. If custody is the question, begin with the bond hearing guide; after a transfer, try the Texas directory.
