The Temporary Protected Status Registration Period for Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone has been extended to August 18, 2015. The USCIS strongly encourages all eligible applicants to apply as soon as possible. The original application period was set to end May 20, 2015.

According to USCIS, “you may apply for TPS even if you are a Liberian national currently covered under the two-year extension of Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) based on President Obama’s Sept. 26, 2014 memorandum. If you are a DED-covered Liberian national and you have an EAD or have applied for an EAD, you do not need to apply for another EAD related to this TPS designation. However, if you are granted TPS, you may request a TPS-related EAD at a later date as long as the TPS designation for Liberia remains in effect.”
