The Trump administration has introduced a new initiative allowing undocumented immigrants to receive $1,000 and travel assistance for voluntarily returning to their home countries using the CBP Home App. This approach aims to provide a dignified exit and reduce costs associated with deportation, projected to decrease by 70%. DHS emphasizes that participants will be deprioritized from enforcement actions during departure. The program supports law enforcement efficiencies and aims to ensure humane treatment of immigrants. The details of the travel assistance, however, remain unspecified.
"Self-deportation is a dignified way to leave the U.S. and will allow illegal aliens to avoid being encountered by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement."
"If an individual is present in the United States without legal authorization, voluntary return through the CBP Home App is now a safe, practical, and taxpayer-efficient option."
