| Temporary Protected Status (TPS) Immigration Benefits for Haitians |
January 19, 2010- The USCIS has announced a temporary protected status (TPS) benefit for Haitians affected by the earthquake. The TPS designation is initially authorized for a period of 18 months. Under this provision, Haitians who remain in continual physical presence in the United States may apply for temporary protected status (TPS) and be eligible for employment authorization as well as travel documents (Advance Parole). Qualified applications may remain in the U.S. lawfully during the period of the designation. The USCIS recently published an advance copy of the Federal Register announcing the designation.
