The Travel Assistance Programme has been administered by CFAB on behalf of the Home Office since its introduction in 1970. The project existed to provide some assistance to people with full settled status in the UK who decide that they wish to return permanently to their country of origin.

Over the years the scheme has helped almost 3000 individuals to return to their countries of origin. The scheme undoubtedly saves the UK taxpayer significant sums. 

THE SCHEME IS NOW CLOSED AS OF APRIL 2012
