Safe Check-Ins for Immigrants Act

This legislation, known as the Safe Check-Ins for Immigrants Act, amends Section 236 of the Immigration and Nationality Act to introduce an option for virtual periodic appearances. It mandates that the Secretary of Homeland Security permit eligible aliens to appear virtually by video teleconference to satisfy their required check-ins.

This provision specifically applies to aliens who have been released from custody and are required to periodically appear before an immigration officer or a case manager as a condition of their release. The virtual appearance option is intended for those awaiting a final decision on whether they will be removed from the United States, aiming to streamline the check-in process.
