DHS Terminating TPS for Afghanistan
May 13, 2025
On May 12, 2025, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem announced that Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Afghanistan will terminate on July 14, 2025, at 11:59 pm. Ahead of the May 20, 2025, TPS expiration, Afghanistan country conditions were examined to determine whether the country still met the requirements for a TPS designation. In this case, DHS determined, “Afghanistan has had an improved security situation, and its stabilizing economy no longer prevent [Afghanistan nationals] from returning to their home country.” TPS will be taken away from Afghanistan nationals who currently reside in the US leaving them without legal status and lawful work authorization. These individuals could be subjected to removal proceedings as a result.
