More than 1.4 million foreign nationals were issued deportation orders and are on the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement non-detained docket.SINGAPORE - More than 100 Singaporeans have been marked for deportation by the United States authorities since November 2024.
That means they are not being held by ICE but may be detained by other agencies for running afoul of the law. They could also be US permanent residents who have been convicted of a crime or are under a programme called Alternatives to Detention, which means they may be free to move around but are required to report regularly to the authorities or wear an ankle monitor, among other things.
Such exceptions can be granted to asylum seekers or people who will face persecution in their home countries if they return, as well as those who will likely be tortured if they are sent back.
