TPS Status for Ukraine
On March 3, 2022, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced that Ukraine will be designated for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for 18 months. TPS is available for those Ukrainian nationals who are already in the U.S. and have been since March 1, 2022. TPS will be available for those eligible individuals as of the publication date in the Federal Register notice (forthcoming, date yet not determined). This protected status allows them to lawfully remain in the U.S. and to apply for work authorization.
Uniting for Ukraine
On April 21, 2022, the United States announced a key step toward fulfilling President Biden’s commitment to welcome Ukrainians fleeing Russia’s invasion. Uniting for Ukraine provides a pathway and financial support for Ukrainian citizens and their immediate family members who are outside the United States to come to the United States and stay temporarily in a two-year period of parole.
