DHS Announces Temporary Protected Status Designations for Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone

Contributed by Melanie Corrin, Partner
Realizing the need for people from certain African countries to refrain from traveling due to the outbreak of Ebola virus disease in West Africa, the Secretary of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson, has announced his decision to designate Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 18 months.  As a result, eligible nationals of Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone who are currently residing in the United States may apply for TPS with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).
If you are from one of these countries and believe you may be eligible, please call Joseph Law Firm, P.C. to make an appointment to discuss your case options.
