The Trump administration has announced a new initiative aimed at encouraging undocumented immigrants to leave the United States voluntarily. Under this program, immigrants who are in the country illegally will receive a $1,000 stipend and plane fare if they choose to self-deport and return to their home countries. The initiative is part of the administration's broader mass deportation agenda.

To facilitate this process, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has introduced the CBP Home app. Immigrants who use this app to register their intent to self-deport will also be eligible for travel assistance. The DHS has stated that this approach not only offers a dignified way for immigrants to leave the country but also significantly reduces the costs associated with traditional deportation methods, with a projected savings of 70%.

The administration has already implemented the program, with at least one Honduran individual using it to return home from Chicago and receiving the first payout. Additional tickets have been booked for the coming weeks, indicating the program's active rollout. Secretary Kristi Noem emphasized that self-deportation is the most cost-effective and safest method for immigrants to avoid arrest and deportation by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and President Trump suggested that self-deporting immigrants might have a future path to citizenship.
