Changes to Venezuelan TPS

Temporary Protected Status (TPS) allows people from certain countries to stay and work in the U.S. if it is not safe for them to return home due to war, disasters, or other emergencies. TPS for Venezuela has been contested in the courts:

  • February 1, 2025: The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced its decision to end TPS for Venezuela.
  • March 31, 2025: A judge blocked the termination of the 2023 TPS designation through a process called an injunction.
  • May 19, 2025: The Supreme Court lifted the injunction and allowed the government to end the 2023 designation. However, the Supreme Court did not say whether the government’s decision to terminate the 2023 TPS designation for Venezuela was legal or not. 
  • August 29, 2025: A court decided the U.S. government could not end the 2021 designation early on September 10, 2025.
  • September 3, 2025: DHS announced it will end the 2021 designation of TPS Venezuela. It will end 60 days from the Federal Register date.
  • September 5, 2025: A judge ordered that the government’s decision to end the TPS designations for Venezuela was unlawful. This means both the 2021 and 2023 TPS designations for Venezuela are still in effect.
  • The US government will appeal this decision, so this is not the final ruling on whether the government’s decision to end the TPS designation for Venezuela was legal.

د کار جواز

Work permits are available to people with TPS and are known as an Employment Authorization Document (EAD). You can apply for work authorization by filing Form I-765 and paying the fee. It takes several months to get an EAD.

If you have TPS under the 2021 or 2023 designation, your work permit (EAD) is automatically extended until April 2, 2026, because of a court order.
