Who is eligible for Lrif?

LRIF Liberia benefits Liberians, their spouses, unmarried children under 21 years old, and unmarried sons and daughters 21 years old or older living in the United States who meet the eligibility requirements.

What is the deadline to apply for LRIF?

DED Liberia | Deferred Enforced Departure

What is DED?

Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) is a form of legal protection for people in the United States. DED is for people who cannot go back to their home country because of dangerous situations, including political conflict.

If you qualify for DED, you can:

Stay in the U.S. legally for a period of time
Apply for a work permit in the USA
Apply for a document to travel outside the USA
Be protected from detention and deportation

DED is temporary. It does not give you lawful permanent status, citizenship, or any permanent immigration status.

DED Liberia expired on June 30, 2026.

What happens when DED ends?

If you do not have another legal immigration status besides DED, you will become undocumented and lose your work authorization. If you stay without legal status, you will risk being detained, put in removal proceedings, and deported.
