TPS के हो?

अस्थायी संरक्षित स्थिति (TPS) संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकामा पहिल्यैदेखि रहेका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि एक प्रकारको अध्यागमन स्थिति हो। TPS भनेको सशस्त्र द्वन्द्व वा वातावरणीय विपत्तिजस्ता खतराका कारण आफ्नो देश फर्कन नसक्ने व्यक्तिहरूका लागि हो।

तपाईंसँग TPS छ भने तपाईं निम्न कार्य गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ:

  • कानुनी रूपमा अमेरिकामा केही समय बस्छु।
  • अमेरिकामा काम गर्न चाहिने अनुमति पत्रका लागि आवेदन दिनुहोस्
  • अमेरिका बाहिर यात्रा गर्न आवेदन दिनुहोस्
  • हिरासत र निर्वासनबाट सुरक्षित रहनुहोस्।

You will not get any of the benefits of TPS until your application is approved. TPS is temporary. It does not give you lawful permanent status, citizenship, or any permanent immigration status.

Go to the USCIS TPS Haiti page for more details.

New applicants

Who can apply

You must meet the following requirements to apply:

  • Be a national of Haiti or a person without nationality who lived in Haiti for a long time before arriving in the USA
  • Have lived only in the USA since June 3, 2024
  • Did not take trips outside the U.S. after August 4, 2024 that might impact eligibility

You may not be eligible if you have committed certain crimes.

How to apply

You can apply for TPS Haiti by filing Form I-821. You can file your application online or by mail with USCIS.

You must send documents showing proof of your identity, nationality, and date of entry. These are listed in the What to File section.

You must pay a fee if you are applying for TPS for the first time. You might be able to apply for a fee waiver if you can’t afford to pay the fee. Learn how to use the USCIS fee calculator.

It is important to apply as soon as possible. The last day to apply is now August 3, 2025, but that is also when TPS for Haiti ends.

What happens next

USCIS will review your application and send you a receipt notice. You can check the status of your application online by typing in your receipt number. If you do not get a receipt within 3 weeks of filing, you can call the USCIS Contact Center.

You may get a letter asking for more evidence. This could be your photo, fingerprints, signature, and other documents.

You will get a letter approving or denying your application. If you applied for a work permit, you will also get information about your application.

If you do not get TPS, you will get information on whether and how you can appeal their decision.

Current TPS holders

The TPS designation period was changed to 12 months. You will no longer have benefits through February 3, 2026. Your benefits are now valid through August 3, 2025. USCIS will not issue new documentation with this new expiration date.

If you already have TPS for Haiti under a previous designation, you must have re-registered by August 30, 2024 to continue your benefits through August 3, 2025. 

श्रम स्वीकृति

TPS भएका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि वर्क परमिटहरू उपलब्ध छन् र यी रोजगार प्राधिकरण कागजात (EAD) को रूपमा चिनिन्छन्। यसले रोजगारदाताहरूलाई देखाउँछ कि तपाईंलाई संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकामा काम गर्न अनुमति छ।

You can apply for work authorization by filing Form I-765. It is recommended to apply at the same time you apply for TPS. Filing both forms together may help you get EAD faster. You can also apply after.

If you apply for a new EAD during the current registration period, your work permit will be valid through August 3, 2025. USCIS will not issue new work permits with this new date.

If you have TPS under a previous designation, USCIS has automatically extended the expiration date of EADs for TPS Haiti holders to August 3, 2025, for those whose EADs expired on the following dates:

  • Aug. 3, 2024
  • June 30, 2024
  • Feb. 3, 2023
  • Dec. 31, 2022
  • Oct. 4, 2021
  • Jan. 4, 2021
  • Jan. 2, 2020
  • July 22, 2019
  • Jan. 22, 2018
  • July 22, 2017

यात्रा अनुमति

TPS भएका व्यक्तिहरूका लागि यात्रा अनुमतिहरू उपलब्ध छन्। यसलाई एड्भान्स्ड प्यारोल भनेर चिनिन्छ। यसले अध्यागमन अधिकारीहरूलाई देखाउँछ कि तपाईंलाई विदेश यात्रा गर्न र अमेरिका फर्कन अनुमति दिइएको छ।

You can apply for a travel permit by filing Form I-131. Follow the Federal Register notice instructions when applying for a travel permit.

संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिका बाहिर यात्रा गर्नुअघि वकिलसँग कुरा गर्नुहोस्। अध्यागमन नियमहरू परिवर्तन हुन सक्छन् र यात्रा गर्न सुरक्षित छ कि छैन भनेर जान्न महत्त्वपूर्ण हुन्छ।

TPS को म्याद सकिएपछि के हुन्छ?

The U.S. government will review the designation by June 4, 2025, to decide if it will continue or end. Be prepared for the possibility that it will end.

If you do not have another legal immigration status besides TPS, you will become undocumented and lose your work authorization. If you stay without legal status, you will risk being detained and deported.

How to prepare

  • Talk to an immigration lawyer. It is important to seek legal help and learn about your options for staying in the U.S.
  • Apply for another immigration status if you qualify. 
    • तपाईं अर्को अध्यागमन स्थितिको रूपमा एकै समयमा TPS प्राप्त गर्न सक्नुहुन्छ। 
    • Review if you are eligible for asylum, lawful permanent status (Green Card), or other U.S. visas.
  • Know your rights. Learn what to do if federal immigration officers or local law enforcement stop you.
  • Plan for emergencies. Be ready for situations like detention, deportation, or sudden separation from loved ones.
  • Be prepared for ICE. Know what to do if you are undocumented and agents come to your home or work. 
  • Stay informed. Learn more about immigration changes under the new administration.
