I am missing some of my immigration documents or my caregiver is refusing to turn them over. How can I request a copy?

Another option is to ask your attorney if you have one for help submitting a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to a government agency that may have the records, like ICE, CBP and EOIR. When the request is processed, you will be able to see what information and documents the government has about you.
