El Salvador's Temporary Protected Status Extended
El Salvador's Temporary Protected Status Extended
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has extended the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) designation for El Salvador until March 9, 2009. Under the extension, Salvadorans who have already been granted TPS are eligible to live and work in the U.S. for an additional 18 months. The extension of the TPS designation of El Salvador will be effective on September 10 and remain in effect until March 9, 2009. Nationals of El Salvador previously granted TPS status must re-register for the 18-month extension between August 21, 2007 and October 22, 2007.
DHS also extended the validity of the current Employment Authorization Document (EAD) for eligible Salvadoran TPS beneficiaries for six months, until March 9, 2008. The automatic extension applies to EAD cards issued to Salvadorans bearing the notation "A-12" or "C-19" on the EAD card under "Category" and with (1) an expiration date of July 5, 2006, or September 9, 2006, on the face of the card and a September 2007 DHS-issued extension sticker on the back or (2) an expiration date of September 30, 2007 on the face of the card. The purpose of the automatic extension is to provide re-registration applicants time to apply for and receive a new EAD card. Please contact your Hodgson Russ immigration attorney with any questions regarding this announcement.
