Summary

Informational only, not legal advice. Confirm deadlines on the official notice or with a qualified professional.

The Department of Homeland Security has partially canceled the July 2024 notice that extended Haiti's Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation, creating immediate uncertainty for approximately 307,000 Haitian nationals currently protected under TPS. This action effectively narrows the scope of Haiti's TPS coverage and may require affected individuals to explore alternative legal status options. The partial vacation means some Haitian TPS holders will lose protection unless they obtain other immigration relief.
