TPS to Employment-Based Green Card: How to Identify Employment-Based Options for TPS Recipients
As news has surfaced that the Trump Administration is terminating TPS for Nicaragua and Haiti, the need for all TPS holders to explore all immigration options has never been greater. Recent decisions in the 9th and 6th Circuits have created potential pathways for TPS applicants to obtain permanent residency through employment. Non-profit attorneys/paralegals and the private bar who work with the TPS population are encouraged to attend the training to help identify when a TPS recipient may be eligible for an employment-based green card.
