From Fox News: Thousands of illegal immigrants facing potential involuntary removal from the United States have instead opted to self-deport through an app provided by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The number of immigrants who have opted to self-deport over the last month using the CBP Home app is over 5,000, according to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data shared with Fox News Digital.
The self-deportations come as the Trump administration has ramped up a messaging campaign aimed at encouraging illegal immigrants to leave the country voluntarily, most recently releasing a flyer addressed to “illegal aliens” that threatens new fines for those who choose to remain in the U.S. despite a deportation order.
“Self-deportation is safe,” the flyer reads. “Leave on your own terms by picking your departure flight.”
The flyer warns that the administration plans to start fining illegal migrants who have received a final order of removal $998 per day if they continue to stay in the country, while fines of $1,000-$5,000 could be given to those who failed to self-deport after claiming they would.

The flyer being distributed by DHS to illegal aliens informs them of multiple benefits if they leave on their own, including:
- Ability to keep the money they earned while in the U.S.
- Future opportunities to return to the US legally
- Potential financial assistance or flights out of the country for those who cannot afford it
Last chance to self-deport on your own terms. CBP Home is available now. If not, DHS will remove you and bar your return.
