U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency is removing age limits for new applicants. The change aims to allow more individuals to qualify to join ICE in its efforts to apprehend criminals such as murderers, pedophiles, gang members, rapists, and other illegal offenders.
Previously, applicants had to be at least 21 years old, with additional age caps for certain roles—criminal investigators had to be no older than 37, and deportation officers no older than 40. With the new policy, those age restrictions have been lifted entirely, allowing people as young as 18 to apply and removing any maximum age limits.
Applicants must still pass medical and drug screenings, as well as a physical fitness test. The agency also announced increased funding, enabling new hires to receive up to $50,000 in signing bonuses, student loan repayment options, higher pay for special agents, improved retirement benefits, and overtime pay. Recruitment efforts to hire 10,000 new ICE officers have reportedly been highly successful.
