Indian student self-deports using CBP Home app

Ranjani Srinivasan, an Indian student at Columbia University, self-deported from the U.S. using the CBP Home app after her student visa was revoked. Her visa was canceled on March 5 due to alleged support for Hamas. The CBP Home app allows individuals unlawfully present in the U.S. to notify the government of their intent to leave. It also provides features like checking border wait times and applying for entry forms. The app is part of the U.S. government's strategy to promote self-deportation as a way to manage immigration. It is available for free on major app stores.
