What to do if the TPS status expires?

Temporary Protected Status (TPS) is granted to citizens who cannot safely return to their home country due to extraordinary circumstances such as war, natural disasters, or humanitarian crises. The initial TPS period for Ukrainian citizens expired on October 20, 2023. This became a serious issue for those who were unable to apply for an extension or re-registration on time.

However, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has decided to extend TPS for Ukraine until April 19, 2025, providing additional time for those who have not been able to apply or re-register. It is important to remember that even after the initial deadline has passed, you still have a chance to apply, but you must provide a valid reason for the delay.

Reasons you may not have applied on time

If you were unable to apply on time, it’s important to understand what circumstances may be considered valid in order to avoid losing the opportunity to obtain TPS. These reasons may include:

  • Serious illness: If you were unable to apply due to health reasons, it is important to provide medical documentation that proves your inability to meet the requirements.
  • Language barriers: If you were unable to seek help due to a lack of English proficiency or insufficient access to translators.
  • Disinformation: Many people, due to limited access to information, did not know about the need to extend TPS. If you did not receive accurate information or were misinformed, this can be a valid reason.

In such cases, be sure to provide the relevant evidence to confirm your situation. This will help increase your chances of a positive decision.

What to do if you missed the TPS deadline?

If you missed the deadline, the best solution is to act as quickly as possible. The sooner you seek legal assistance, the higher your chances of success. Your application may still be accepted even after the deadline if you provide a valid reason for the delay.

Remember that failure to provide the necessary documents or refusing to submit your application can result in losing the chance to obtain TPS. Therefore, do not delay! It is best to consult with lawyers specializing in immigration law to help you prepare all the necessary documents properly.

How to apply for TPS extension?

The process of applying for TPS extension involves several stages:

  1. Gathering the necessary documents: You need to prepare all documents proving your identity, as well as documents supporting your reason for delay. These may include medical records, translated documents confirming language barriers, or disinformation statements.
  2. Filling out forms: The application for TPS extension requires filling out specific forms. You must carefully complete Form I-821 for status extension and Form I-765 for work authorization if you wish to work in the U.S.
  3. Submitting the application: Once all documents are gathered and forms completed, you need to submit the application online or by mail. It is recommended to submit the application online to speed up the process.
