Leave the US Now”: New Immigration Policy Shocks 900,000 Migrants, Say
Thousands of migrants told to leave US immediately as Biden-era parole gets cancelled. BBC reports major policy shift under Trump. Here’s what it means.
“Leave the US Now” — Trump’s New Immigration Move Hits 900,000 Migrants
By Tudayadah | Source: BBC News
According to BBC News, over 900,000 migrants who entered the US legally during the Biden administration using the CBP One app are now being told to leave immediately.
These migrants were allowed to stay and work for two years under a program called “parole”, but now those permissions are being cancelled. Emails sent to migrants, as seen by BBC, say:
“It is time for you to leave the United States… or you will face law enforcement removal.”
App That Helped Migrants Is Now Being Used to Send Them Back
The CBP One app — once praised by the Biden team — is now called CBP Home. Under Donald Trump’s leadership, it’s being used for “self-deportations”.
BBC says the app asks migrants if they have:
- Enough money to leave
- A valid passport from their country
This is part of a sweeping change that could reshape immigration handling in the US.
Legal Benefits Cancelled Too
Migrants who had work authorization or legal benefits from the parole system will lose everything, according to BBC reports.
The government says those who don’t leave could face:
- Fines
- Criminal charges
- Deportation
Who Is Affected?
The BBC confirms that:
- Migrants from Mexico, Honduras, and El Salvador are affected
- Migrants under special programs from Ukraine and Afghanistan are not affected
New National Registry for Undocumented Migrant
In a separate move, BBC says the US is creating a national registry for all undocumented migrants above age 14. They must:
- Provide their address
- Give fingerprints
Those who don’t sign up could face prosecution, the BBC reports.
Final Thoughts from Tudayadah
This is a major U-turn in US immigration. Migrants who entered legally, followed the rules, and contributed to society are now at risk of deportation.
As the BBC wisely points out, this change may bring confusion, fear, and hardship — and enforcing it may not be easy.
Immigration experts told BBC this will be difficult to manage, and it’s not clear how it will end.
