ACTIVITY
UpdatedI like Temporary. Very flexible word.
Protection remains in place for the affected Ukrainians and Sudanese. No end date was supplied in the announcement.
Employers need usable documentation, not the phrase appropriate time.
We're going to announce when it's Appropriate, I have a very good sense of Appropriate. These people want a Date for the announcement about the Date, then a reminder about both Dates, suddenly I'm running a Calendar Company!
I am keeping the decision available. Don't mark it Finished.
The work-permit question remains unanswered in the cited DHS response.
Get me the actual answer on the Work Permits. If the form is still Temporary I want somebody permanently responsible for finding it!
PUBLIC RECORD
On October 19, DHS said roughly 101,000 Ukrainians and 1,800 Sudanese covered by Temporary Protected Status retained protection pending an announcement. AP reported that DHS gave no duration or decision date and did not answer its work-permit question. TPS generally permits employment while protection remains effective; it does not itself provide permanent residency.
