Migrants Offered Money to Self-Deport Over Christmas


The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said it is Tripling the Financial Incentive for Migrants without Legal Status to Self-Deport over the Christmas period, now offering a $3,000 “Exit Bonus” until the End of December for those who Leave using the CBP Home App.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem (R) said in a News Release that 1.9 million Migrants, who had been Living in the U.S. Illegally, had Voluntarily Self-Ddeported, since Trump’s (R) Second Term began in January, 2025. “Illegal aliens should take advantage of this gift and self-deport because if they don’t, we will find them, we will arrest them, and they will never return,” Noem said in a Statement.

DHS said All Eligible Participants who Depart by December 31st, would receive Free Airfare to their Home Countries, and have Waived certain Civil Fines or Penalties Associated with Remaining in the U.S. Illegally, provided they Voluntarily Self-Deport. Individuals who Voluntarily Left the U.S. through the Self-Deportation Program were previously Offered $1,000 to do so.

The Trump Aadministration has Highlighted CBP Home as a Tool for Iindividuals to Leave the U.S. without Encountering Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Custody, while also including Features for People who regularly Cross the Border Legally, such as when Traveling to and from Mexico.

The Program Replaced CBP One, allows Users to Declare their Intent to Depart, provide Confirmation once they have Left and Track their Status with the Government.

According to DHS, the Self-Deportation feature is intended for Individuals in the Country Illegally or whose Parole has ended following the Expiration of certain Protections. By Notifying the Government of their Departure, Users may be able to Avoid more Ssevere Consequences, such as Detention or Expedited Removal.

DHS previously said that Tens-of-Thousands of Migrants had used the CBP Home App to Voluntarily leave the U.S., but the Agency did Not provide a Precise Figure.

A DHS Spokesperson previously said: “Tens of thousands of illegal aliens have utilized the CBP Home app. 1.6 million illegal immigrants have left the United States population since January 20, not all utilizing the CBP Home App.”

Noem said in a News Release on Monday: “Since January 2025, 1.9 million illegal aliens have voluntarily self-deported and tens of thousands have used the CBP Home program. During the Christmas Season, the U.S. taxpayer is so generously TRIPLING the incentive to leave voluntarily for those in this country illegally—offering a $3,000 exit bonus, but just until the end of the year.”
