On his first day in office, President Donald Trump ended the use of the controversial CBP One app, which the Biden administration expanded and exploited.
By June of 2024, over 600,000 million illegals were allowed into the US through this “legal” loophole.
Now, The Department of Homeland Security has repurposed the app and announced it will become the CBP Home app to facilitate self-deportation.
All CBP One apps will be updated to the new app with the added feature that “Aliens can now notify the U.S. Government of their intent to depart the United States.”
A statement from U.S. Customs and Border Protection shared the following statement:
Today, U.S. Customs and Border Protection announces the public-facing mobile application, CBP Home. The application has a new feature – Intent to Depart – which offers unlawfully present aliens or those aliens whose parole has been revoked an orderly and defined voluntary process to notify the U.S. Government of their intent to depart the United States. This new feature is a necessary tool to comply with the President’s Executive Order 14159, Protecting the American People Against Invasion.
With the CBP Home Mobile Application, travelers, businesses, and stakeholders will continue to gain access to a single digital solution that streamlines CBP processes, enhances security, and reduces administrative burdens – all from the convenience of a mobile device.
“CBP Home App strengthens our mission to secure the U.S. border by ensuring lawful entry for travelers and supporting effective enforcement,” said Pete Flores, Acting Commissioner, U.S. Customs and Border Protection. “The app provides illegal aliens in the United States with a straightforward way to declare their intent to voluntarily depart, offering them the chance to leave before facing harsher consequences. This reinforces our commitment to enforcing U.S. laws and safeguarding national security.”
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem said in a statement, “The Biden Administration exploited the CBP One App to allow more than 1 million aliens to illegally enter the United States. With the launching of the CBP Home App, we are restoring integrity to our immigration system.”
Noem added, “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.”
