About this facility
Cimarron Correctional Facility - Cushing, Oklahoma
Cimarron Correctional Facility is located in Cushing, Oklahoma (Payne County) and is operated by CoreCivic. It is used to hold immigration detainees in ICE custody along with other federal detainees.
Rules for calls, visitation, and legal mail can change. Always confirm current procedures directly with the facility or with ICE before relying on older information.
Start with the ICE Online Detainee Locator
The quickest way to confirm whether a person is in ICE custody, including at Cimarron, is the free ICE Online Detainee Locator System at locator.ice.gov. The tool is public, so a relative, friend, or employer can use it.
There are two ways to search: by the person's A-number and country of birth, or by their full name, country of birth, and date of birth.
Information that improves your search
The more accurate your details, the more likely the locator returns a match. Pull together what you can first.
- The A-number: an 8 or 9 digit number beginning with the letter A, printed on immigration documents such as court notices, application receipts, or a work permit.
- The full legal name, exactly as the government recorded it.
- The country of birth.
- The date of birth.

A focused consultation can help your family prioritize bond strategy, hearing preparation, and key evidence collection.
When no result appears
An empty result does not necessarily mean the person is free. The system updates on a delay and does not list everyone.
- Right after an arrest or a transfer, records may not appear yet. Search again after some time has passed.
- Spelling must match the government's entry. Try alternate spellings and reversed surname order.
- Minors under 18 arrested inside the United States are not shown in the online locator.
For employers looking for a detained employee
An employer is often the first to realize a worker has gone missing from the schedule without notice. Because the ICE Online Detainee Locator is public, an employer can search with the worker's name, country of birth, and date of birth.
Case-specific information is generally released only to the detained person's attorney or authorized family, not to an employer. The most valuable thing an employer can do is reach the worker's family and help them connect with an immigration attorney without delay.
After you locate the person
Finding the location is only the beginning. The following steps protect the case and keep communication open.
- Record the A-number and the facility listed in the locator.
- Keep every document the person was given, including any Notice to Appear or hearing notice.
- Track upcoming hearing dates and filing deadlines.
- Talk with an immigration attorney soon about custody, bond, and defense strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find out if someone is detained at Cimarron Correctional Facility?
Use the free ICE Online Detainee Locator at locator.ice.gov. You can search by A-number and country of birth, or by full name, country of birth, and date of birth.
Why can't I find my relative in the ICE detainee locator?
The system updates on a delay after arrests and transfers, names must match the government's spelling, and minors under 18 arrested inside the U.S. are not listed. Try again later and test name variations.
Can a friend or an employer look someone up?
Yes. The locator is open to the public, so anyone with the right details can search. Facilities and ICE, though, generally share case details only with the detainee's attorney or authorized family.
