Ukrainians and Sudanese retain temporary protection in US
By the AFREEQUE newsroom, based on Eyeradio
Ukrainian and Sudanese nationals living in the United States will be able to retain temporary protected status, the Department of Homeland Security said on the day it was due to expire. The US government has set no new deadline and will announce the future of these protections later, according to a department spokesperson cited by the Daily Nation.
Ukrainian and Sudanese nationals benefiting from temporary protected status (TPS) will be able to remain in the United States and work legally for now, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said on Monday. Their protections were due to expire on the same day, according to the DHS, cited by the Daily Nation.
A department spokesperson said announcements about Ukrainian and Sudanese beneficiaries would be made “at the appropriate time” and that their immigration protections would remain in force. TPS allows people already in the United States to stay and work in the country when their country of origin is affected by armed conflict, a natural disaster or other exceptional circumstances.
This is a second reprieve in two months for some beneficiaries of the status, according to the Daily Nation.
