The Department of Homeland Security has extended Temporary Protected Status to eligible nationals of South Sudan for an additional 18 months through May 2, 2019.
Key dates and deadlines:
Background: South Sudan was designated for TPS on Oct. 13, 2011 and was redesignated for TPS on May 3, 2016. Acting Secretary of Homeland Security Elaine Duke has determined that TPS should be extended for an additional 18 months owing to the ongoing civil war in South Sudan.
BAL Analysis: South Sudan TPS beneficiaries should reregister as soon as possible and not wait until their EADs have expired. Employers should be aware of the automatic extension of EADs for current South Sudan TPS beneficiaries who timely file to reregister and apply for an EAD.
