Temporary Protected Status for Sudan to Terminate in November 2018

Release Date: Sept. 18, 2017

WASHINGTON—Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Elaine Duke has determined that conditions in Sudan no longer support its designation for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) after reviewing country conditions, and after Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials’ consultations with the appropriate U.S. government agencies. Acting Secretary Duke is extending benefits for beneficiaries of Sudan TPS for 12 months to allow for an orderly transition before the designation terminates on Nov. 2, 2018.

Current beneficiaries of Sudan’s TPS designation seeking to extend their TPS status must re-register. The deadline will be published in the Federal Register and on www.uscis.gov/tps later this week. Those who re-register and request a new employment authorization document (EAD) may receive an automatic extension of their expiring EAD for up to 180 days from the date their current EAD expires. If a beneficiary’s EAD request is approved, they will receive a new EAD with an expiration date of Nov. 2, 2018. TPS beneficiaries are strongly encouraged to re-register and file their EAD applications as early as possible to avoid lapses in documentation of employment authorization.

Although TPS benefits will no longer be in effect starting Nov. 2, 2018, TPS beneficiaries will continue to hold any other immigration status that they have maintained or acquired while registered for TPS. The Department of Homeland Security urges individuals who do not have another immigration status to use the time before the termination becomes effective in November to prepare for and arrange their departure from the United States or to apply for other immigration benefits for which they may be eligible.

Additional information about TPS is available at uscis.gov/tps. A Federal Register notice containing further details will be published soon.

Why can't any of these Secretary's of DHS actually end TPS when it expires. It wasn't that long ago that John Kelly extended the Hatian's TPS. Hmm, I guess it's no different than Trump's extended protection of DACA members for six months.

Judge blocks US from ending TPS protections for 4 countries

Start shipping out a weekly QUOTA of them now!

We want every last one of them off our soil BEFORE the deadline!

It can be done.

President Barack Obama terminated TPS status for Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone during his administration

If it terminates on November 2nd...WHY are they not loaded up and shipped out BEFORE the termination date!

If they are STILL here on November 3rd...then they ARE here illegally!

Set a weekly quota and get them ALL out of here!

End this stupid TPS program!

Because none of them can be deported now or after Nov. 2.

Federal judge blocks Trump administration from deporting 300,000 immigrants under TPS
