This fact sheet is current as of September 7, 2023.

On September 5, 2023, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas announced the extension and redesignation of South Sudan for Temporary Protected Status for 18 months, from November 4, 2023, through May 3, 2025. Instructions for applying for TPS are included in the Federal Register Notice (FRN) on TPS South Sudan.

What is temporary protected status (TPS)?

The Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) grants TPS to individuals from designated countries who are unable to return home safely due to conditions or circumstances in their home countries.

During the designated TPS period, TPS holders can live in the United States and should not be detained by DHS solely based on their immigration status. TPS holders are eligible to apply for an employment authorization document (EAD) and for travel authorization.

What does the extension of TPS for South Sudan mean?

If you have TPS as a South Sudan national, you can apply to extend TPS. To receive the TPS extension, you must re-register for TPS in the re-registration period from September 6, 2023, through November 6, 2023. If approved, your TPS and EAD will be extended until May 3, 2025.

What does the redesignation of TPS for South Sudan mean?

If you are a South Sudanese national and have never had TPS, you can now apply for TPS for the first time. If you have lived in the United States continuously since September 4, 2023, you can apply for TPS between September 6, 2023, through May 3, 2025. You must also meet the eligibility requirements.

How do I apply for TPS?

People interested in TPS must file an application with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services and pay the filing fee. They may also apply for an EAD and for travel authorization. All individuals applying for TPS undergo security and background checks as part of determining eligibility. More details about the eligibility criteria to submit an initial TPS application and apply for an EAD can be found in the Federal Register Notice.

Is TPS status given automatically?

No, TPS is not automatic. People must apply, pay a filing fee, and pass immigration screening. There are some facts that will make a person ineligible for TPS. For example, people with certain criminal convictions or who violated the human rights of others are not eligible for TPS. People who are inadmissible under certain sections of the law may have to file a waiver before they can be approved for TPS status. The application process can be complicated, and we recommend working with an immigration attorney.

How long will eligible individuals have protection under TPS?

TPS is a temporary status. The Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas is extending and redesignating South Sudan for TPS until May 3, 2025.

I have South Sudan TPS, can I apply to extend it?

Yes. Under South Sudan TPS, individuals who already have TPS must apply before November 6, 2023 to extend their TPS.

I do not have TPS, can I apply for the first time?

Yes. Individuals applying for TPS for the first time can apply during the entire initial registration period from September 6, 2023, to May 3, 2025.

I have been in the United States since before September 4, 2023, but I have left for short periods of time. Can I apply for TPS?

Maybe. Whether you still qualify for TPS depends on the length and nature of your time outside of the United States. Please contact an immigration attorney to discuss your situation further.

I am from South Sudan, and I came to the United States as a refugee. Do I need to apply for TPS?

No. People who are in the United States with refugee status can live and work here and apply for permanent resident status after one year. They do not require TPS.

I am from South Sudan, and I now have a green card. Do I need to apply for TPS?

No. As a permanent resident, you have legal status in the United States and are on a path to citizenship. You do not need and would not qualify for TPS.

I am from South Sudan, and I am in deportation proceedings. Can I apply for TPS to avoid deportation?

Yes. A person in removal proceedings can apply for TPS, and if approved, can request that the judge put the removal case on hold until TPS is approved, and then for the time it is in effect.

I am from South Sudan, and the police have given me tickets here. Can I apply for TPS?

Maybe. You should show your tickets, police reports, and court records to an immigration lawyer before filing. A person with two misdemeanors or one felony conviction cannot get TPS. A lawyer can tell you if the tickets will be a problem.

Which people from South Sudan should consider applying for TPS?

People who are here with no legal status should consider applying. Also, those who are here on a visa that is for a limited time or that does not allow employment might also benefit by receiving Temporary Protected Status. Having TPS does not hurt anything.

On Friday, January 17, 2025 Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro N. Mayorkas, announced the extension of designation of Ukraine for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 18 months beginning on April 20, 2025, and ending on October 19, 2026. 

What is temporary protected status (TPS)? 

TPS is granted by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to eligible foreign-born individuals who are unable to return home safely due to conditions or circumstances preventing their return to their home country. 

During the designated TPS period, TPS holders are not removable from the United States and not detainable by DHS based on their immigration status. TPS holders are eligible for an employment authorization document (EAD), and eligible for travel authorization. 

What does the extension of TPS for Ukraine mean? 

The 18-month extension of Ukraine’s TPS designation begins on April 20, 2025, and will remain in effect for 18 months, ending on October 19, 2026. The extension allows existing TPS beneficiaries to retain TPS through October 19, 2026, if they otherwise continue to meet the eligibility requirements for TPS.  

Existing TPS beneficiaries who wish to extend their status through October 19, 2026, must re-register during the 60-day re-registration period described in this notice. The re-registration period for existing beneficiaries runs from January 17, 2025, through March 18, 2025.  

Note: It is important for re-registrants to timely re-register during the re-registration period and not to wait until their Employment Authorization Documents (EADs) expire, as delaying re-registration could result in gaps in their employment authorization documentation. USCIS will issue new EADs with an October 19, 2026, expiration date to eligible beneficiaries granted TPS under Ukraine’s designation who timely re-register and apply for EADs. 

For more details on re-registering for TPS and re-applying for EADs, visit the Federal Registry Notice (FRN).

Though Minnesota’s new recreational cannabis law went into effect on August 1, immigrants who are not yet U.S. citizens and live in states that decriminalize cannabis still should not partake like other adults who are U.S. citizens.  

Using, possessing, growing, and selling marijuana is still illegal under federal law. If you are not a U.S. citizen, do not use, possess, grow, or sell marijuana. Doing so could stop you from getting legal status or U.S. citizenship, result in the loss of your immigration status, or put you at risk of deportation.  

Minnesota’s new recreational cannabis law will automatically expunge certain low-level cannabis offenses. Records of these offenses may be more difficult to access in the future, but these records might be important for an immigration case. If you’re not a U.S. citizen and believe you were charged with or convicted of a marijuana offense, you should obtain copies of your records as soon as possible. Records can be obtained at Minnesota Court Records Online.

Sasa hivi Machi 28, 2023. Karatasi hii ya maaluma ni kazi inayoendelea na itasasishwa inapohitajika. Sio ushauri wa kisheria.

Mnamo Machi 7, 2023, Gavana Tim Walz alitia saini Leseni za Udereva kwa Wote kuwa sheria. Sheria itaanza kutumika tarehe 1 Oktoba 2023. Karatasi hii ya maaluma ni muhtasari wa sheria hii mpya.

Katika miezi michache ijayo, Idara ya Usalama wa Umma (DPS), ILCM, na washirika wetu watakuwa wakitayarisha nyenzo nyingine za kukusaidia kujiandaa kutuma maombi ya leseni ya udereva. Kwa nyenzo za hivi punde, tafadhali tembelea www.ilcm.org. 

Ili kurahisisha kusoma karatasi hii ya maaluma, tunarejelea “dereva leseni” kote, lakini kadi za utambulisho za serikali zinapatikana pia chini ya sheria mpya.

1. Nani anaweza kupata leseni ya udereva chini ya sheria mpya?

Kuanzia Oktoba 1, wananchi wote wa Minnesota wanaweza kupata leseni ya udereva bila kujali hali ya uhamiaji. Ili kupata leseni ya udereva, mwombaji ambaye ana umri wa miaka 21 au zaidi lazima athibitishe utambulisho wao, apite mtihani wa maono, na apite majaribio ya maandishi na ya kuendesha gari. Mahitaji ya waombaji ambao ni kati ya 16 na 21 ni tofauti.

• Mahitaji ya waombaji walio na umri wa miaka 16-17
• Mahitaji ya waombaji walio na umri wa miaka 18-21

2. Ni aina gani ya leseni ya udereva inapatikana chini ya Sheria ya Leseni za Udereva kwa Wote?

Kuanzia Oktoba 1, wananchi wote wa Minnesota watastahiki leseni ya kawaida ya udereva ya Daraja la D bila kujali hali ya uhamiaji (picha ya kitambulisho hapo juu). Hakutakuwa na alama kwenye leseni zinazoonyesha uraia au hali ya uhamiaji.

Kuna leseni zingine mbili zinazopatikana Minnesota: leseni zilizoboreshwa na za Kitambulisho Halisi. Ili kupata leseni iliyoboreshwa au ya Kitambulisho Halisi, mwombaji lazima athibitishe uraia au hali ya uhamiaji inayostahiki.

3. Je, ikiwa ninataka tu kitambulisho lakini sio kuendesha gari?

Mtu wa umri wowote anaweza kutuma maombi ya kadi ya Kitambulisho cha Minnesota (picha ya kitambulisho hapo juu). Baada ya Tarehe 1 Oktoba, mtu yeyote wa umri wowote anaweza kutuma maombi ya kadi ya Kitambulisho cha Minnesota bila kujali hali ya uhamiaji. Mwombaji lazima atume ombi la kadi na alipe ada inayohitajika na awasilishe uthibitisho wa utambulisho (aina sawa za hati za utambulisho kama inavyoruhusiwa kwa leseni ya udereva). Kuanzia Oktoba 1, wananchi wote wa Minnesota watastahiki kadi za Utambulisho wa Minnesota bila kujali hali ya uhamiaji. Hakutakuwa na alama kwenye kadi ya utambulisho zinazoonyesha uraia au hali ya uhamiaji.

4. Ni nyaraka za aina gani zinaweza kutumika kuthibitisha utambulisho?

Waombaji wa leseni za kawaida za udereva za Daraja la D tayari wanaweza kutumia hati za utambulisho zilizoorodheshwa hapa ili kuthibitisha utambulisho wao. Kuanzia Oktoba 1, waombaji pia wataweza kutumia hati kadhaa za kigeni na uhamiaji ili kuthibitisha utambulisho wao. Hati hizi ni pamoja na zifuatazo, na Idara ya Usalama wa Umma (DPS) itachapisha orodha ndefu ya hati zinazokubalika karibu na Oktoba 1:

• Pasipoti ya kigeni
• Cheti cha kuzaliwa cha kigeni
• Cheti cha kuasili kutoka nchi za kigeni
• Notisi fulani za uwasilishaji na uidhinishaji wa uhamiaji

5. Itakuwa vigumu kwangu kupata hati za utambulisho zinazohitajika kwa ombi hili. Nifanye nini?

Sheria hii haitaanza kutumika hadi tarehe 1 Oktoba 2023, kwa hivyo hii inakupa muda wa kukusanya hati zinazohitajika. Ikiwa huwezi kuzipata, bado kunaweza kuwa na njia ya kuomba leseni ya dereva (kupitia kitu kinachoitwa “mchakato wa kutofautiana”). DPS bado inashughulikia maelezo ya baadhi ya michakato hii na itafanya taarifa zaidi kupatikana karibu na Oktoba 1.

6. Je, ninahitaji kutoa uthibitisho wa uraia au hali ya uhamiaji ili kupata leseni ya kawaida ya Daraja la D?

Kuanzia Oktoba 1, waombaji wa leseni za kawaida za udereva za Daraja la D hawahitaji kutoa uthibitisho wa uraia au hali ya uhamiaji ili kupata leseni ya udereva. Kwa hakika, DPS hairuhusiwi kuwauliza waombaji leseni za udereva za Daraja la D kuhusu uraia wao au hali ya uhamiaji.

7. Sina hati (kwa mfano, niliingia Marekani bila visa, niliingia kwa visa na kukaa mara tu ilipoisha, na kadhalika). Je, ninaweza kupata leseni ya udereva ya Minnesota?

Ndiyo. Kuanzia Oktoba 1, uthibitisho wa hali ya uhamiaji hautahitajika kama sehemu ya ombi la leseni ya udereva ya Minnesota. Utahitaji kutoa hati za utambulisho zinazohitajika (angalia swali #4), lakini hutahitaji kuwa na au kuthibitisha hali halali ya uhamiaji ili ustahiki kupata leseni ya udereva ya Minnesota.

8. Je, leseni ya udereva inatoa hali yoyote ya uhamiaji au idhini ya kazi kwa wahamiaji wasio na hati?

Hapana. Hali ya uhamiaji ni suala la sheria ya serikali ya juu. Leseni za udereva zinazotolewa chini ya sheria ya serikali ya wilaya; hazitoi hadhi ya uhamiaji au idhini ya kazi.

9. Je, ni ulinzi gani wa faragha katika sheria ya Leseni za Udereva kwa Wote?

Kuanzia Oktoba 1, kutakuwa na vizuizi vikali kuhusu uwezo wa DPS wa kushiriki habari nje ya wakala kuhusu mtu aliye na leseni ya udereva ya Daraja la D.

Kwanza, DPS hairuhusiwi kushiriki habari yoyote kuhusu uraia wa mtu binafsi au hali ya uhamiaji. Kuna hali moja pekee: DPS inaweza kushiriki data hii na Katibu wa Jimbo la Minnesota (SOS) ili kuboresha rekodi za usajili wa wapigakura.

Pili, DPS hairuhusiwi kushiriki maelezo yoyote kuhusu watu ambao wametuma maombi au kupokea leseni ya udereva ya Daraja la D kwa ICE isipokuwa DPS imeamriwa na mahakama kufanya hivyo.

Tatu, ikiwa DPS itashiriki maelezo yoyote nje ya wakala kuhusu watu ambao wametuma maombi au kupokea leseni ya udereva ya Daraja la D, wakala anayepokea lazima atie sahihi uthibitisho kwamba hatashiriki maelezo na ICE au kutumia maelezo hayo kutekeleza sheria za uhamiaji.

10. Ikiwa nilipata Nambari ya Usalama wa Jamii kwa madhumuni ya muda lakini haitumiki tena kwa kazi, je, hiyo ndiyo ninayopaswa kuorodhesha kwenye ombi?

Nambari ya Usalama wa Jamii (SSN) haihitajiki ili kupata leseni ya kawaida ya Daraja la D. Ombi la Leseni ya Udereva litawauliza waombaji kuorodhesha nambari zao za usalama wa kijamii. Ikiwa unayo, lazima uipe. Hii ni kweli hata kama huna hadhi halali ya uhamiaji na SSN si halali kwa madhumuni ya kazi. Ikiwa huna moja, utatia saini kuthibitisha kuwa huna.

11. Je, niorodheshe ITIN ikiwa ninayo?

Usionyeshe nambari yako ya ITIN kwenye nafasi ya SSN. Programu iliyosasishwa ya Leseni ya Udereva inaweza kuomba nambari ya ITIN. Ikiomba nambari ya ITIN unapaswa kuipatia. DPS itatoa taarifa zaidi kuhusu hili baadaye.

12. Je, ninaweza kuomba leseni wapi? Je, ni lazima niifanye mwenyewe?

Minnesota Dereva na Huduma za Magari (DVS) ina taarifa kuhusu maeneo ya ofisi, ratiba za majaribio, na ada za maombi ya leseni ya udereva zinazopatikana kwenye tovuti ya Minnesota DVS.

Unaweza kukamilisha mchakato wa kutuma maombi binafsi katika eneo la DVS au eneo rasmi la mshirika wa DVS. Unaweza pia kukamilisha sehemu za mchakato wa kutuma maombi, kama vile jaribio la maandishi, katika mashirika rasmi ya jumuiya ya washirika wa DVS. Hakikisha kuwa unakamilisha ombi lako mwenyewe na kwamba unatuma ombi lako katika eneo la DVS au mshirika rasmi wa DVS. Maombi lazima yawasilishwe na mtu ambaye anaomba leseni na hayawezi kuwasilishwa hadi Oktoba 1.

13. Nini ikiwa nitapata leseni ya dereva katika hali nyingine?

Ikiwa una leseni ya udereva katika jimbo lingine, angalia tovuti ya Minnesota DVS. Jibu linategemea mahali ulipopata leseni, na ikiwa bado ni halali wakati wa kutuma ombi la leseni ya Minnesota. Tafadhali uliza DVS moja kwa moja ikiwa una maswali baada ya kukagua tovuti yao na/au muulize wakili wa uhamiaji ikiwa una maswali kuhusu hati ulizotumia kupata leseni katika jimbo linguine.
