Schedule Departure Program to End
After few weeks, the program entitled “Scheduled Departure” is about to end, according to the Associated Press. The program allowed illegal immigrants who are subject to judicial order to leave the United States and who do not have a criminal record to turn themselves in voluntarily and be allowed to wrap up their departure in an orderly fashion.
The Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has decided to scrap the program after netting a total of eight (8) illegal immigrants. The cost of the program (mainly advertising) is said to have been around $41,000.
