New US Immigration Policy: Self-deportation via APP, Nearly $1000 Fine per Day for Overstay

America Embassy in China Weibo reminds!

U.S. Department of Homeland Security: If you are illegally staying in the United States, leave immediately and self-deport using the CBP Home app. If you fail to do so, you will face consequences. One of the consequences is that if you overstay beyond the final deportation order deadline, you will be fined nearly $1000 for each day of illegal stay.

To be precise, the fine for overstaying is $988 per day.

$988 may not be a lot for the wealthy, but for an illegal immigrant, it is indeed a significant amount. Once you can't pay it, more severe penalties await.
