You have the right to remain silent, you do not have to answer questions about your immigration status, where you were born, or how you entered the U.S.

You have the right to refuse to sign anything without a lawyer.

If you're detained by immigration, you still have the right to stay silent, ask for a lawyer, get a hearing, and fight your case.

You have the right to request asylum if you fear returning to your country.
