DHS unveils new taxpayer-savings program to get rid of illegal immigrants

  • On May 5, 2025, DHS unveiled a program that provides illegal immigrants with financial support and travel assistance to encourage self-deportation through the CBP Home App.
  • The initiative aims to reduce costly deportations by encouraging self-deportation, which costs around $4,500 per person instead of $17,121 for formal removal.
  • Undocumented immigrants who participate in the program receive travel support along with a $1,000 payment after their departure is verified, and DHS will lower the priority of taking enforcement action against those who sign up to leave voluntarily.
  • DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and border czar Tom Homan stated that encouraging self-deportation through financial incentives is a safer approach for all involved and will reduce taxpayer expenses by approximately 70%.
  • The program has already processed some returns and expects increased participation, possibly easing enforcement burdens and preserving legal re-entry options for participants.
