The Pros and Cons Of The U.S. Temporary Protected Status

-


 The Immigration Act created Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in 1990 and there are currently more than 700,000 people with it.

The TPS is a non-permanent immigration status that the US government gives to eligible people from certain countries who cannot go back to their home country because of serious conditions.

These conditions could be an ongoing war, a natural disaster, an outbreak, or something else entirely. The TPS lasts for a certain time and can be extended if needed.

During the TPS period, the TPS holders cannot leave the US, but they can get an Employment Authorization Document (EAD) and a travel permit. A TPS holder does not get permanent residency or other immigration benefits.

You have to qualify for other immigration benefits as a TPS holder. Just because someone gets TPS does not mean they get other immigration benefits.

  Due to the extensive legal framework devoted to marriage formation and related difficulties, marriage-related issues have emerged as some of the most contentious and disputed issues in today's society. Most of those problems are related to situations where the parties to the marriage have irreconcilable differences and the union appears to be incompatible.

Despite this, Brooklyn remains popular among people who want to be a part of a community and enjoy outdoor activities. If you are applying for a green card outside of the United States, you must go to your current country’s embassy or consulate.
