Yes. President Biden redesignated Haiti for TPS. Haitians who have been living in the U.S. on or before June 3, 2024, are now eligible for TPS.
TPS will last 18 months, from August 4, 2024, to February 3, 2026. You can submit your application (I-821) any time through February 2, 2026. TPS gives you a work permit and protection from deportation to Haiti.
If you entered the U.S. with humanitarian parole under the Biden Program, you can still file for TPS. If you already filed for asylum, you can still file for TPS. You can file for TPS and asylum at the same time. Asylum is better than TPS because its not temporary and gives you a chance to file for permanent resident.
Yes. President Biden extended TPS for another 18 months until February 3, 2026. If you already have TPS, you must re-register by filing another TPS application (Form I-821) by August 30, 2024, to keep your TPS status. This is very important, if you do not re-register or if you file after August 30, 2024, you will lose TPS!
If you are already an HBA client, yes. HBA’s legal team will assist existing HBA clients with their TPS applications. If HBA is working or has already worked on your asylum application, TPS application, or work permit, HBA will prepare and submit your TPS renewal (if you already have TPS) or new TPS application if you don’t already have TPS.
Please note that HBA must prioritize clients who already have TPS because their renewal must be filed by August 30, 2024. All other TPS applications can be filed at any time until February 2, 2026.
Please contact HBA’s legal team if you want help by calling our hotline at (619) 693-8708.
Come to a free HBA legal clinic! HBA’s legal team will host a free legal clinic on August 3 and August 17 to assist Haitians in San Diego with the TPS application. Please stay tuned for more details.
What if you do not live in San Diego?
Unfortunately, HBA does not have the capacity now to assist Haitians who do not live in San Diego with their TPS applications unless they are already existing clients. Feel free to contact HBA’s hotline (619) 693-8708 and HBA will try to refer you to a pro bono attorney who can assist you.
w ap jwenn tout repons ak enfòmasyon ou bezwen sou TPS
1. Si mwen t ap viv Etazini depi 3 Jen 2024, èske mwen kalifye pou TPS ?
Wi, ou kalifye. Prezidan Biden rebay TPS pou Ayiti. Tout Ayisyen ki te gen tan ap viv Etazini avan oubyen nan jou 3 Jen 2024, yo yout kalifye pou aplike pou TPS.
TPS la ap dire 18 mwa soti 4 Out 2024 rive 3 Fevriye 2026. Ou ka voye aplikasyon (I-821) an ale nenpòt lè avan 2 Fevriye 2026. Ak TPS la ou ka aplike pou kat travay epi ou gen pwoteksyon pou otorite Etazini pa ka depòte ou Ayiti.
Si ou te antre Etazini sou kondisyon pawòl nan pwogram Biden, ou gendwa pou aplike pou TPS. Si ou te déjà aplike pou azil , ou toujou kapab aplike pou azil. Ou ka aplike pou azil ak TPS an menm tan. Azil la bay plis avantaj pase TPS paske li pa sèlman pou yon tibout tanepi si ou jwenn azil ou gen posibilite pou aplike pou rezidans Etazini.
2. Si mwen te deha gen TPS , Eske mwen oblije re aplike ankò pou kontinye gen TPS ?
Wi, Prezidan Biden lonje TPS ki te la déjà pou yon lòt 18 mwa jiska 3 Fevriye 2026. Si ou te déjà gen TPS, ou dwe reaplike nan yon nouvo fòm aplikasyon TPS (I-821) avan 30 Out 2024 pou ka kontinye jwenn avantaj moun ki gen TPS resevwa. Sa enpòtan anpil pou konnen. Si yon moun ki te déjà gen TPS deside pa aplike oubyen al aplike apre dat 30 Out la, ou pap moun ki gen TPS.
