TPS Filing Deadline for Haiti
May 27th, 2010 | 
Author: July 20, 2010 is the deadline for filing for TPS for eligible Haitians. TPS stands for Temporary Protected Status and Haiti was designated as country on TPS following the earthquake earlier in the year.
What are the benefits of TPS?
If your application for TPS is approved, you will be allowed to remain in the United States for the designated period of time, until the United States government feels that conditions that prompted the designation of TPS have eased and it is safe to return to the country where there was an earthquake or other calamity or civil strife.
You will therefore not be ordered to leave the United States if you are in removal proceedings.
You are also eligible for employment authorization during the designated period.
