TPS for Afghanistan has ended
The last day of TPS was July 21, 2025. As of this date:
- People from Afghanistan with TPS will no longer have this protection.
- Work permits through TPS will no longer be valid
The decision to end TPS for Afghanistan is being challenged in court. It is not certain if that will lead to any changes.
What happens when TPS expires?
If you do not have another legal immigration status besides TPS, you will become undocumented and lose your work authorization. If you stay without legal status, you will risk being detained and deported.
How to prepare
- Afghan Coalition, Afghan Association of Central Virginia, and Afghan Evac offer help for Afghans in the U.S.
- Talk to an immigration lawyer. It is important to seek legal help and learn about your options for staying in the U.S.
- Apply for another immigration status if you qualify. Review if you are eligible for asylum, lawful permanent status (Green Card), or other U.S. visas.
- Be prepared for ICE. Know what to do if you are undocumented and agents come to your home or work. Know your rights and how to create a safety plan.
- باخبر رہیں. Learn more about immigration changes under the new administration.
- Find resources for Afghans. Find more information in Dari and Pashto.
