Nearly 4 in 10 Detained Immigrants Chose Voluntary Departure by Late 2025: Report
By Pedro Camacho


Bond approvals and asylum grants have declined alongside the rise in voluntary departures. CBS News found that only 30% of bond rulings for detainees were favorable last year, down from 59% in 2024. Data analyzed by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse showed monthly asylum approval rates falling to 29% by December 2025, after exceeding 50% during much of 2022 through 2024.
