Federal agents swooped on her home in a pre-dawn raid.
Homeland Security Investigations entered the Somali-born congresswoman's home in Washington DC amid a probe into immigration papers.
A Justice Department spokesman said: 'Today in the Washington, DC area, Homeland Security Investigations executed a judicially authorized search warrant secured by the Department of Justice.
'This enforcement action is part of an ongoing federal investigation.'
The raid is a major escalation of a case border czar Tom Homan first revealed in mid-September.
He declined to rule out stripping her of her American citizenship.

Days earlier, Mullin said the probe reached beyond her disputed 2009 marriage and warned that removal actions could follow if wrongdoing is proven. Omar has long faced claims that she married her own brother to get him into the country.
Minnesota has become ground zero for Trump's immigration crackdown, home to the largest Somali community in the country.
The state is also at the center of a sprawling Medicaid fraud scandal that federal prosecutors warn could reach $9 billion, and the administration has seized on it, dispatching a strike force of prosecutors.
As Republicans scramble to hold on to Congress with the midterms less than a month away, Monday's raid drags the immigration fight straight back into the spotlight at the eleventh hour.
Omar, a member of the progressive Squad, is one of the president's most outspoken critics on Capitol Hill and has been a regular target of his attacks since his first term.
Omar married her former political consultant Tim Mynett in Washington in March 2020, just four months after her divorce from Ahmed Hirsi, the father of her three children, was finalized.
Mynett's ex-wife, Beth, had filed for divorce the previous August, claiming in court papers that he walked out on her after making a 'shocking declaration of love' for the congresswoman.
The raid comes less than seven weeks after Minneapolis police swooped on the apartment Omar's son, Adnan Hirsi, 20, shares with a roommate.
Officers seized guns and ammunition from the home and arrested the roommate, Abdulrahman Abdi, 22, on a weapons charge after finding a firearm in his impounded car.
