Temporary Protected Status

What is TPS?​

TPS, or Temporary Protected Status, allows people from certain countries to live and work in the United States during a humanitarian crisis in their home countries. See the Top 10 Questions About TPS.

The Trump administration has moved to terminate TPS for many countries. Check the status of your TPS.

URGENT! On June 25, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 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. Learn more.
