What You Should Know About the U.S. Supreme Court’s Decision Allowing Termination of TPS for Haiti and Syria

URGENT!

On June 25, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court geregeerd allowing the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitian and Syrian nationals with unchecked power. This means 350,000 Haitian and 6,000 Syrian community members will soon lose their ability to live and work legally in the U.S. and become vulnerable to deportation. This ruling will also negatively impact the future of individuals with TPS for currently-designated countries.

It is important that anyone with TPS immediately consult with a trusted immigration attorney.

What is the status of TPS for Haiti and Syria?

While we know the U.S. government will now be allowed to end TPS for Haiti and Syria, the exact timing of when the terminations will go into effect, and TPS holders from Syria and Haiti will lose protections, is yet to be seen. The U.S. Supreme Court decided that federal courts do not have the power to review DHS TPS-decision making, ruling in favor of the Trump administration’s efforts to end TPS for individuals from Haiti and Syria in the cases, Trump v. Miot en Mullin v. Doe. Next, the Supreme Court will send the decision to the lower courts that blocked TPS from ending for Haiti and Syria and the government will very likely ask the lower court to dismiss the case, meaning the administration would be allowed to terminate TPS for Haiti and Syria.

I am a Haitian or Syrian TPS holder. How will this negative decision impact me?

This decision means TPS holders from Syria and Haiti will soon:

  • Lose protection from deportation/ ability to lawfully remain in the U.S.: This is a loss for more than 350,000 Haitian and 6,000 Syrian community members. You will soon lose your ability to live and work legally in the U.S. and protection from deportation.
  • Lose work authorization: You will also lose work authorization, unless you are authorized to work pursuant to other immigration relief, such as a pending application for asylum.
  • Become vulnerable to arrest and deportation: You could become vulnerable to return to unsafe conditions in your home country, unless you have another lawful means to remain in the U.S., such as a pending asylum application.

I am a TPS holder from one of the other currently-designated countries. Does this negative decision impact me too?

Yes. This decision at the U.S. Supreme Court on TPS for Haiti and Syria also negatively affects the future of other TPS-designated countries, as the Supreme Court has found DHS TPS-decision making cannot be reviewed by the courts– giving DHS full discretion to terminate TPS for all countries. This decision negatively impacts all the lawsuits currently challenging TPS terminations plus all future TPS terminations. It allows DHS to make TPS decisions without accountability and will mean loss of TPS and work authorization for other TPS holders.

How can I prepare for the imminent loss of TPS and work authorization?

There are various steps you can take NOW to prepare for the imminent loss of TPS and work authorization:

  • Consult with a reputable immigration attorney IMMEDIATELY: You will soon lose your ability to live and work legally in the U.S. and protection from deportation. As such, it is crucial that you seek legal advice if you have questions about your TPS and how this may impact you and your family. (See more below.)
  • If you are represented by a union, contact your union representative: Your union can bargain with your employer for an unpaid leave of absence, severance pay, other separation benefits, or may have additional resources.
  • Make a family safety plan: Family preparedness plans are critical to ensuring that your family is prepared for and protected in case of any immigration emergency. Now is the time to prepare a family safety plan. It can ensure that if ICE detains you or a family member, your children, other dependents, or assets are cared for. You should gather important paperwork, make sure a trusted person is listed on school records to pick-up your children from school, work out childcare and financial issues, and keep the phone numbers of an attorney and your union representative, if you are represented by a union, with you.
  • Ken uw rechten: All people in the U.S. have rights, regardless of immigration status. Make sure you know your rights if you are approached by police or ICE. Review the information below to help you understand what your rights are and what to do in different situations.

Wat als mijn werkgever me vraagt om mijn werkvergunning te bewijzen?

  • You continue to be authorized to work until the Supreme Court’s decision is implemented by the lower court and the lower court reverses their decision, lifting the block (order) that prevented the termination of TPS for Haiti and Syria.
  • Once that happens, employers will be allowed to reverify work authorization of any Haitian and Syrian TPS holder- EAD categories (a)(12) and (c)(19) – and will be allowed to ask you to show proof that you are authorized to work.
  • Nonetheless, any TPS holder who has applied for other immigration relief may be authorized to work pursuant to those pending applications, such as an asylum application, and you may provide your employers proof of other forms of employment authorization to update your records.
  • Als je wordt vertegenwoordigd door een vakbond, neem dan contact op met je vakbondsvertegenwoordiger.

What do I do when my work authorization and TPS end?

  • If you are represented by a union, contact your union representative. Je vakbond kan met je werkgever onderhandelen over een onbetaald verlof, een ontslagvergoeding of andere ontslagvergoedingen.
  • Neem onmiddellijk contact op met een betrouwbare immigratieadvocaat. Pas op voor "notarios" of oplichters. Zoek een gerenommeerde juridische dienstverlener bij jou in de buurt.
