TPS Designation

TPS, or Temporary Protected Status, is a humanitarian designation in the United States that allows individuals from certain countries experiencing crises—such as natural disasters or ongoing conflict—to remain in the U.S. temporarily. This status protects them from deportation and allows them to apply for work permits. TPS is not a permanent immigration status; it is renewed periodically based on conditions in their home countries. This program aims to provide relief and safety to those who cannot safely return home due to extraordinary circumstances.
