    Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas announced today the extension and redesignation of Somalia for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 18 months, from September 18, 2024, to March 17, 2026, due to conditions in Somalia that prevent individuals from safely returning.

    “Armed conflict and widespread insecurity have harmed and displaced civilians in Somalia for years, exacerbated by the ravages of famine, disease, and extreme weather,” said Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas. “Granting protection through Temporary Protected Status ensures that Somalis already in the United States can reside and work here while these deteriorating conditions in Somalia persist.”

    The extension of TPS for Somalia allows approximately 600 current beneficiaries to retain TPS through March 17, 2026, if they continue to meet TPS eligibility requirements. Current TPS beneficiaries who wish to extend their status through March 17, 2026, must re-register during the 60-day re-registration period from July 22, 2024, to September 20, 2024, to ensure they maintain their TPS and employment authorization.

    The redesignation of Somalia for TPS allows an estimated 4,300 additional Somali nationals (or individuals without nationality who last resided in Somalia) to file initial applications for TPS if they are otherwise eligible. Applicants must establish that they have continuously resided in the United States since on or before July 12, 2024, and have been continuously physically present in the United States since that date (“continuous residence”).
