The designation of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for El Salvador and related benefits will end on September 9, 2026, as confirmed by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). In an update published on Wednesday on its portal, the agency also announced the extension of work permits until that date. This decision will leave nearly 170,000 Salvadoran immigrants residing in the United States in a state of immigration uncertainty. 'USCIS is sending notifications to beneficiaries of TPS for El Salvador who remain eligible for the program but have not received renewed Employment Authorization Documents (EAD) with category codes A-12 or C-19 — and whose EAD application based on TPS is still pending,' USCIS reported.
