The CBP Home mobile application, launched by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) on March 10, 2025, is designed to facilitate voluntary self-deportation for non-criminal illegal aliens in the United States of America. The app is not intended for reporting illegal aliens in the U.S. to ICE. CBP Home replaces the CBP One app, which was previously used for scheduling appointments at ports of entry. The app is part of a $200 million Department of Homeland Security (DHS) campaign to encourage illegal aliens to “Stay Out and Leave Now.” It is available for free on Apple’s App Store and Google Play, accessible to anyone with a compatible device. The primary feature of CBP Home is the “Intent to Depart” function, allowing illegal aliens to notify the U.S. government of their plan to leave voluntarily. Eligible users include non-criminal illegal aliens who have had an encounter with CBP, either at or between ports of entry. Upon submitting their intent and passing vetting, users are deprioritized for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention or enforcement actions until their scheduled departure, typically within 21 days of approval. The app provides travel assistance, including arranging cost-free travel, obtaining valid travel documents, and a $1,000 exit bonus paid after departure is confirmed. DHS also forgives civil fines for failing to depart, which can otherwise accrue at nearly $1,000 per day. The app aims to streamline the departure process, allowing users to organize personal matters, such as work or school, before leaving. Voluntary self-deportation is a safer, cost-effective alternative to forced removal, potentially preserving future legal reentry options, according to the CPB. CBP Home collects biometric data, such as facial images, to verify departures and improve exit tracking, addressing longstanding issues with incomplete departure records. This aligns with U.S. President Donald J. Trump’s January 20, 2025 Executive Order 14159, “Protecting the American People Against Invasion,” emphasizing border security and enforcement. Again, the CBP Home app is not intended for reporting illegal aliens to authorities. Its focus is on self-initiated departure, not enforcement or surveillance of others. The app includes privacy safeguards to protect user data, ensuring confidentiality during the process. Reporting Illegal Aliens to ICE To report suspected illegal aliens in the United States, individuals should contact ICE directly, not through the CBP Home app. ICE operates a national hotline at 1-866-DHS-2-ICE (1-866-347-2423) for reporting immigration violations, including the presence of illegal aliens. Tips can also be submitted online via ICE’s website at www.ice.gov/webform/ice-tip-form. Local ICE field offices, listed on the ICE website, accept reports as well. According to ICE, callers should provide specific details, such as names, locations, or other identifying information, but should not attempt to confront or apprehend suspected illegal aliens in the United States. ICE prioritizes enforcement against criminal aliens, and tips are vetted to determine appropriate action.

The CBP Home app is not intended for reporting illegal aliens in the U.S. to ICE
Jennifer Aniston to star in new Apple TV+ series inspired by ‘iCarly’ star Jennette McCurdy’s memoir ‘I’m Glad My …
Apple TV+ on Tuesday announced it will expand its award-winning original series slate with a new dramedy starring and executive produced by Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe Award winner Jennifer Aniston (“The Morning Show”), and inspired by “I’m Glad My Mom Died,” Jennette McCurdy’s unflinching No. 1 New York Times bestselling memoir of the same name. The 10-episode series is written, executive produced and showrun by McCurdy and Ari Katcher (“Ramy,” “Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show”). “I’m Glad My Mom Died” is a heartbreaking and hilarious recounting of McCurdy’s struggles as a former child actor while dealing with her overbearing, domineering mother. Published on August 9, 2022 by Simon & Schuster, McCurdy’s memoir “I’m Glad My Mom Died” reached over 80 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list. The dramedy will center on the codependent relationship between an 18-year-old actress in a hit kid’s show, and her narcissistic mother who relishes in her identity as “a starlet’s mother,” set to be played by Aniston. Hailing from Apple Studios, the project is executive produced by McCurdy and Katcher; Aniston via Echo Films; Sharon Horgan and Stacy Greenberg for Merman (“Bad Sisters,” “Catastrophe,” “Divorce”); Dani Gorin, Tom Ackerley and Josey McNamara for LuckyChap; Jerrod Carmichael (“Ramy,” “Jerrod Carmichael Reality Show”) and Erica Kay (“Fosse/Verdon,” “Pose,” “Dead Ringers”). The project marks the latest collaboration for Apple TV+ and Aniston, who stars in and executive produces the Emmy, SAG and Critics Choice Award-winning global hit Apple Original series “The Morning Show,” which will debut its highly anticipated fourth season on September 17. Apple TV+ also recently collaborated with Horgan and Merman on the acclaimed comedic drama “Bad Sisters,” which landed top honors at the BAFTAs for Best Drama Series, alongside a Best Supporting Actress win for series star Anne-Marie Duff, following its first season. The first and second seasons of “Bad Sisters” are now streaming globally on Apple TV+. MacDailyNews Note: Apple TV+ is available on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions, on over 1 billion screens, including iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Vision Pro, Mac, popular smart TVs from Samsung, LG, Sony, VIZIO, TCL and others, Roku and Amazon Fire TV devices, Chromecast with Google TV, PlayStation and Xbox gaming consoles, and at tv.apple.com, for $9.99 per month with a seven-day free trial for new subscribers.
