United States Citizenship & Immigration Service Extends Temporary Protected Status to El Salvador

Contributed by Melanie Corrin, Partner


On January 7, 2015 the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) extended Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to El Salvadorans who qualified and applied during the designated time and who received TPS from the government.  This move is a welcome and much needed recognition of the tens of thousands of human beings present in the United States who remain in need of protection from return to El Salvador.  The extension is valid until September 6, 2016.

Please contact us if you are eligible for renewal of your Temporary Protected Status.
