Accommodate, accommodate, accommodate!

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced today that Temporary Protected Status for Honduras and Nicaragua will terminate on September 8. The announcements come only one week after the DHS announced that TPS status for Haiti would end on September 2.

UPDATE (7/2/25): A federal judge in New York on Tuesday found that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security did not have the authority to partially vacate Haiti’s TPS status. According to Judge Brian Cogan (a George W. Bush appointee), it was unlawful for the DHS to have shortened the TPS designation period from its original expiration of February 3, 2026, to August 3, 2025. This decision could mean a return to the February 3, 2026, expiration date, but that could be temporary. We expect the DHS to appeal, and seek review by the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.

As we have previously reported, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security is revoking employment authorization documents for certain individuals affected by the termination of humanitarian parole, including beneficiaries of the program for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans (better known as “CHNV”). On Friday, E-Verify sent an email update with guidance regarding steps that employers must take.

Celebrate freedom!

Happy Father's Day weekend, y'all!
