As you may know, the designation of El Salvador for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) has been extended until March 9, 2025. Existing TPS beneficiaries who wish to extend their status must re-register during the 60-day re-registration period starting on July 12, 2023. We want to assist those members of our community in applying for the re-registration of their TPS timely. Please see the attached flyers for more information.


This extension allows existing TPS beneficiaries to retain TPS through March 9, 2025, so long as they otherwise continue to meet the eligibility requirements. The important dates to consider are as follows (from the USCIS website):

Extension of Designation of El Salvador for TPS: The 18-month extension of TPS for El Salvador begins on September 10, 2023, and will remain in effect through March 9, 2025. The extension impacts existing beneficiaries of TPS under the designation of El Salvador.

Re-registration: The 60-day re-registration period for existing beneficiaries runs from 

July 12, 2023, through September 10, 2023

Similar processes will take place later this year for:

Honduras and Nicaragua for 18 months, from Jan. 6, 2024, through July 5, 2025 

Nepal for 18 months, from Dec. 25, 2023, through June 24, 2025

Existing TPS beneficiaries who wish to extend their status must re-register during the 60-day re-registration period for their country’s designation. Please do not re-register for TPS until the re-registration period for your country begins. For now, we are focusing our outreach on the Salvadoran community, since their re-registration is fast approaching.
