Hello! We are a library directing you to immigration information - not the U.S. government.

WE DO NOT HAVE SPECIFIC INFORMATION ON ANYONE'S IMMIGRATION STATUS - YOU MUST CONTACT THE U.S. GOVERNMENT.

  • Visit the Immigration Case and Detainee Status page to check the status of your immigration case or find the location of people in immigration detention in Louisiana.

  • Visit the Resources for the Public page to find information on all aspects of immigration, including visas, asylum, green cards/naturalization, detention and deportation, immigration-related aspects of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), government benefits for immigrants, and immigrant taxes.

  • Visit the Find Legal Representation and Advice section of this guide to find a lawyer or connect with legal aid organizations in Louisiana. If you have a legal problem, it is always a good idea to talk to someone who is licensed to practice law.

  • If you are an attorney representing or seeking to represent clients in immigration cases, please review our Resources for Attorneys.

*If something in this guide isn't working or you need more help finding what you're looking for, please call us at (504) 310-2400 or toll free at (800) 820-3038 (only within Louisiana) or contact us via email at library@lasc.org. Thank you!
