The Department of Homeland Security announced the extension and redesignation of Yemen for Temporary Protected Status for 18 months, from Sept. 4, 2024, through Mar. 3, 2026.
Key Points:
Additional Information: The DHS determined an 18-month extension and redesignation of Yemen for TPS was warranted because of the ongoing conflict for the past decade “pushing the country to the brink of economic collapse.” U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will continue to process pending applications filed under previous TPS designations for Yemen. Individuals with a pending Form I-821, Application for Temporary Protected Status, and Form I-765, Application for Employment Authorization, as of July 10, 2024, do not need to refile.
This extension and redesignation does not apply to anyone who was not already in the United States on July 2, 2024.
