Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano has re-designated Somalia
for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and has extended the existing TPS
designation for Somalia from Sept. 18, 2012 through March 17, 2014, allowing
eligible nationals of Somalia to register or re-register for TPS in accordance
with the Federal Register notice.
Somali nationals with TPS who are seeking to re-register for TPS must
file their application packages during the 60-day re-registration period
that runs from May 1, 2012, through July 2, 2012. Somalis (or persons
without nationality who last habitually resided in Somalia) in the United
States who do not currently have TPS may apply under the re-designation
during the six-month period that runs from May 1, 2012 through Oct. 29,
2012. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) encourages eligible
individuals to register as soon as possible.
