End of Temporary Protected Status for Venezuela in 2023

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has announced the termination of Venezuela’s designation for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in 2023. This decision was made following a thorough review of conditions in the country and consultations with U.S. government agencies.

What Does This Decision Mean?

Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem determined that the circumstances in Venezuela no longer justify the continuation of TPS granted in 2023. As a result, the status and associated benefits will expire 60 days after the official notice is published in the Federal Register.

Impact on TPS Beneficiaries

Venezuelan citizens who currently hold TPS should stay informed through official updates and evaluate their legal options for remaining in the U.S. It is highly recommended to consult immigration attorneys or visit the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website for more detailed information.
