It is usually based on some sort of natural disaster for example earthquake in Haiti, war in Syria, flooding in El Salvador are some examples. A person has to be from a country that the US. TPS and you have to be in the country before a certain cutoff date. Recently, TPS was extended for Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. Washington, D.C.: March 22, 2016 – United States Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson has extended the designations of Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for an additional six months. According to communication from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), although there have been significant improvements in the conditions in all three countries since their designations for TPS in November 2014, the lingering effects of the Ebola virus disease outbreak and continued recovery challenges support the six-month extension. The extended period covers from May 22, 2016 through November 21, 2016. Current TPS beneficiaries from Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone seeking to extend their TPS must re-register during a 60-day period that runs from March 22, 2016, through May 23, 2016. The six-month extension allows TPS re-registrants to apply for a new Employment Authorization Document (EAD). Eligible TPS beneficiaries who re-register during the 60-day period and request a new EAD will receive one with an expiration date of November 21, 2016. Please keep in mind that two or more misdemeanors, one felony, and/or failure to timely renew TPS during the statutory renewal period can result of the denial of subsequent TPS renewal. It may be wise to seek competent legal help in your TPS renewal.Please contact us, so that we can assist you in renewing your TPS. Marcus Anton Jarvis, Attorney at Law, 763 425 5447. www.a-tbooks.com
