01
I am from a country with TPS
Temporary Protected Status, TPS, is requested or re-registered with Form I-821, usually together with the work permit (I-765).
What we do with you
If your country is on the TPS list and you or your attorney have decided to file, we fill out the forms with you and organize the proof of your identity and nationality. Which countries are on the list and until when is published only by USCIS.
For example
USCIS announced a new registration period for your country and you want to re-register. You bring your passport or birth certificate, your previous approval and your permit. You leave with the package ready.

Questions we get about TPS
Is my country designated right now?
Designations are made by the U.S. government and announced by USCIS, and they change over time, along with the registration and re-registration windows that go with them. Check the official page at uscis.gov/TPS rather than assuming, and rather than relying on what you hear from other people. We do not make that determination.
What do I bring to the appointment?
Your identification documents, your proof of nationality, two passport-style photographs, and any TPS paperwork or USCIS notice you have kept. Bring the documents you are unsure about too.
Can you handle a filing that is outside the window?
No. A late filing, and the question of which deadline applies to you, are legal territory. Consult a licensed immigration attorney, whom you can find through the American Immigration Lawyers Association at ailalawyer.com.
