Where can I find information about legal immigration to the United States and enforcement of U.S. immigration laws?
After September 11, 2001, immigration services were moved from the U.S. Department of Justice to the newly created U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Immigration and related enforcement functions were divided into separate agencies. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is the entity that handles immigration benefits. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USICE) is responsible for all enforcement functions, including deportation.
