The Trump administration introduced a new app, CBP Home, on March 10, aimed at enabling immigrants in the United States illegally to “self-deport” rather than face arrest and detention

CBP home app: A tool for self-deportation The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) app, CBP Home, allows individuals to signal their “intent to depart,” according to the agency, Reuters reported.

The CBP Home app gives aliens the option to leave now and self-deport, so they may still have the opportunity to return legally in the future and live the American dream. If they don’t, we will find them, we will deport them, and they will never return.”

Trump administration’s deportation push President Trump, a Republican, had pledged to deport record numbers of migrants in the U.S. illegally. However, his initial deportation figures fell short of the monthly average achieved in the fiscal year 2024 under Democrat Joe Biden. Biden’s deportations primarily targeted recent border crossers.

New regulations and app replacement The Trump administration also introduced a regulation, effective April 11, requiring individuals without legal status to register with the federal government or face fines or imprisonment. Additionally, CBP Home replaced the Joe Biden-era app CBP One, which had facilitated appointments for migrants in Mexico to request entry at legal border crossings.
