📱 What is CBP Home?

CBP Home is the new mobile application launched by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in March 2025. This tool replaces the previous CBP One app, aiming to simplify and speed up various immigration processes for travelers and migrants.

The app is designed to be a single portal that offers access to multiple CBP services, allowing users to manage their processes more efficiently and from the convenience of their mobile devices.

🔄 Transition from CBP One to CBP Home

With the arrival of the new administration in January 2025, significant changes were made to immigration policies. One of these changes was the elimination of certain features from CBP One, such as appointment scheduling for asylum seekers at the U.S. Southwest border.

In its place, CBP Home was introduced—a new app that not only retains some of the previous functions but also incorporates new tools to enhance the user experience and align with updated immigration policies.

🛠️ Key Features of CBP Home

  1. 🛫 I-94 Provisional Entry RequestTravelers can apply for a provisional I-94 entry permit before arriving at a land port of entry. This allows for faster processing upon arrival and provides quick access to critical information, such as the permitted duration of stay in the U.S.

  2. ⏱️ Border Wait Time VerificationThe app allows users to check estimated wait times and the operational status of open lanes 24/7 at land ports of entry. This helps travelers better plan their trips and avoid unnecessary delays.

  3. 🌾 Agricultural or Biological Product Inspection RequestTravelers can request inspections for agricultural or biological items they wish to bring into the country, helping ensure compliance with regulations and avoid possible penalties.

  4. 📝 Intent to DepartOne of the most notable new features is the option for undocumented immigrants to notify the U.S. government of their voluntary intent to depart the country. This feature offers an alternative to forced removal by allowing users to provide personal information and details about their planned departure.

⚠️ Important Considerations

  • Voluntary Use: The use of the “Intent to Depart” feature is completely voluntary. However, it is essential to understand the legal implications before using this option.

  • Automatic Updates: Existing CBP One apps will be automatically updated to CBP Home. It is recommended to review the new features and settings after the update.

  • Feature Availability: Some features may not be available to all users or in all locations. It is advisable to check the app for details based on your specific case.
