US OFFERS UNDOCUMENTED MIGRANTS $3,000 FOR VOLUNTARY DEPORTATION

The United States government has introduced a voluntary return incentive programme that offers undocumented migrants $3,000 if they agree to leave the country through an organised departure system.
The initiative is being implemented via the CBP Home app, giving eligible migrants the option to apply digitally and schedule their return home.
Reports suggest the programme will run until the end of the year, and is designed to reduce illegal stay numbers inside the United States while speeding up the voluntary deportation process.
Authorities say the aim is to provide a safer and more structured exit route, rather than random removals or arrests.
This development has sparked mixed reactions, with some seeing it as a humane solution, and others raising concerns over policy direction and migrant rights.
More details are expected in the coming days as updates roll out on eligibility and processing timelines.
