U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services announced that Liberians who are covered by Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) may apply for employment authorization documents (EADs) valid through June 30, 2026.
Key Points:
Additional Information: President Joe Biden issued a memorandum on DED for Liberians in 2022 that deferred removal of certain Liberians who have been continuously present in the U.S. since May 20, 2017. In June, he issued a new memorandum extending deferral through June 30, 2026. No application is required for DED, which covers nationals of Liberia or individuals with no nationality who last habitually resided in Liberia based on terms described in the president’s directive.
