"...the Biden administration stopped new enrollments into the RMX program. However, the administration will only disenroll people that are in RMX in the following scenarios:
1. The date of their immigration court hearing (which may be weeks or even months away).
2. For individuals with a particular vulnerability or significantly changed circumstances, an application to disenroll via the online portal (https://engage.dhs.gov/mpp) is available."

"The government’s RMX disenrollment process raises significant due process concerns and has led to confusion on the ground."
