U.S. Embassy in Brazil Offers $3,000 and Free Flight for Undocumented Migrants Who Self-Deport by Year-End

The Portuguese post directs migrants to the CBP Home app as a visible tactic within President Trump’s expanded deportation campaign.

Overview

  • The embassy’s message on X invites undocumented migrants to register via the CBP Home app and depart before the end of 2025 to receive $3,000 plus a free return ticket.
  • The post warns that those who do not self-deport will be located, arrested, and barred from returning to the United States.
  • The outreach was published in Portuguese and points users to download the app through a link in the embassy’s profile bio.
  • Coverage situates the offer in a broader enforcement surge, with CNN reporting at least 200,000 Latin American deportations from January to October 2025, a 470% rise over the comparable period early in the Biden administration.
  • Valor cited government data indicating 3,170 Brazilians were deported in the first ten months of 2025, the highest since 2020 and up 90% from the same period in 2024.
