My friend got detained by ins for getting out of status on f1 for 1semester what can she do to get out ?

Question

of detainship and complete her school

Answer 1

Your friend will have a hearing before an Immigration Judge. At that time, she can ask for a bond to be released from detention. If the judge grants the bond, and if she has the money to put up for the bond, she can be released.

I would like to point out that there is probably something more to this story than that she missed a semester. She may be failing to reveal to you the entire story.

Answer 2

There is nothing that you can do but obtain a Immigration Lawyer as fast as you can to try and get voluntary departure before your friend is held in a prison that they do not want to be in. Timing is very important. The first two days are critical.

Your friend will get a 10 year ban and will always find it difficult to enter the US in the future.
