"The rise in apprehensions over the course of this year reflects the hard work credited to the men and women of the U.S. Border Patrol in carrying out national security priorities with interagency partners. This flight demonstrates those partnerships in action to ensure that individuals illegally present in the U.S. are apprehended and repatriated to their country of origin.”CBP Home is now offering a voluntary, incentivized process for undocumented migrants in the United States to return to their home country or another country that will accept them. Participants use the CBP Home App to record their intention to voluntarily depart the United States.

Any undocumented migrant who uses the app and confirms their departure through the app will receive a $1,000 stipend.
