Which Phelps County Jail is this, and how do I confirm someone is here?
ICE lists two jails with this name, so check the state. This page is Holdrege, Nebraska; the Rolla, Missouri jail falls under a different office. When you use ice.gov/locator, check that the result says Nebraska; it takes an A-number or exact name with country of birth. The directory entry alone shows nothing about a person. Next, call (308) 995-5692 with name, aliases, date and country of birth. These details come from ICE's page updated August 6, 2026.
Which number do I call in Holdrege?
ICE gives this jail two lines with different jobs. For information about a detainee, call (308) 995-5692 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday. To leave an urgent message, ICE gives a different number, (402) 987-2170, and asks for the full name, A-number, and your name and callback number. That area code differs from the jail's other line, so if it fails, confirm through (308) 995-5692. The Omaha ERO sub-office, (402) 536-4929, is the contact for a supervisory officer, packages and the deportation officer's name.
When can I visit in Holdrege?
ICE lists friends and family visits Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., excluding holidays, and all social visits are non-contact. The rules bar weapons, passing items, and electronics in secure areas, and visitors can be searched or refused if they appear intoxicated. The page does not give a visit length, a booking method, or age and ID rules, so call (308) 995-5692 before driving to Holdrege. The Holdrege listing shows what ICE records for the town.
What does ICE say about mail and money here?
ICE prints one address here, under computer messaging: Phelps County Sheriff's Office, 715 5th Avenue Suite 20, Holdrege, NE 68949. It lists no separate letter address, so confirm that one before mailing. Letters need the last 4 digits of the A-number plus your name and address. ICE warns against sending cash; any funds that arrive by mail go on the account with a receipt. The page does not describe commissary, deposits or a phone account. Clear packages with the Omaha sub-office first, and note detainees cannot receive incoming calls.
Where does the case go from here?
Lawyers with ID may visit Holdrege at any time, in person or virtually, with a G-28 on file; appointments only speed things up. Families should work from the person's notice, because ICE's page names no court for this jail and gives only 1-800-898-7180. Our court and hearing finder shows how, and the bond hearing guide is the place to start on custody. The ICE St. Paul office is (612) 409-7799, and the Nebraska directory lists other facilities.
