WASHINGTON<\/strong> \u2014 The Department of Homeland Security has introduced a new initiative utilizing the CBP Home Mobile App to facilitate voluntary self-deportation for non-criminal undocumented immigrants. Under the program, individuals who submit their intent to leave and successfully pass vetting will receive temporary deprioritization from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention and enforcement actions leading up to their scheduled departure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants who register for the voluntary program are eligible for comprehensive assistance, including cost-free travel arrangements, a $2,600 exit bonus, and the complete forgiveness of any civil fines previously assessed for failing to depart under a final order of removal or voluntary departure order. The platform is designed to give individuals time to orderly wrap up personal matters such as work and school before returning to their home countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Federal officials highlight that the CBP Home initiative offers a safe and structured alternative to traditional enforcement methods. By utilizing the app, eligible participants are permitted to return home as regular travelers without the use of arrest, physical restraints, or standard detention procedures, promoting a more orderly repatriation process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
