US Department of Homeland Security Published Federal Register Notice Reiterating Extensions of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) Re-Registration Periods for Several Countries

  • On December 13, 2023, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a Federal Register notice reiterating extensions of the periods to re-register for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) under the existing designations of El Salvador, Haiti, Honduras, Nepal, Nicaragua, and Sudan.

  • As USCIS previously announced in September 2023, the re-registration period for each country is changing from 60 days to the full length of each country’s current TPS designation extension.

  • The 18-month re-registration periods for these current TPS beneficiaries, which are currently open, are extended to the following dates:

    • El Salvador, through March 9, 2025

    • Haiti, through August 3, 2024

    • Honduras, through July 5, 2025

    • Nepal, through June 24, 2025

    • Nicaragua, through July 5, 2025

    • Sudan, through April 19, 2025
