The Department of Homeland Security and federal courts appear to be at odds over whether temporary protected status has ended for some 350,000 Haitians, exposing them to deportation proceedings.<\/p>\n

DHS has indicated online<\/a> that the humanitarian program for Haitians was \u201cterminated, effective July 27, 2026,\u201d this Monday. But lawyers say that TPS cannot officially end until lower courts execute a Supreme Court ruling<\/a> and officially allow the Trump administration to terminate the program, which was first established in response to the catastrophic 2010 earthquake in Haiti.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is still a nationwide injunction in place. Last time I checked the rule of law is still in place,\u201d said Amy Peck, a leader of the immigration group at the firm Jackson Lewis. \u201cThe lower court still needs to issue an order that implements the Supreme Court decision, so DHS doesn\u2019t get to unilaterally decide what the end date is.\u201d<\/p>\n

A DHS spokesperson did not respond to a question on Monday about whether TPS had ended for Haitians, but said, \u201ctemporary protected status is exactly that \u2014 temporary. For too long, TPS has been allowed to function as a de facto amnesty program despite Congress never intending it to be permanent.\u201d<\/p>\n

The cloudy status \u2014 compounded by recent eleventh-hour extensions<\/a> of work permissions for Haitians by DHS \u2014 is creating confusion for Haitian immigrants, lawyers, advocates and the companies that employ them.<\/p>

Some employers have terminated workers and subsequently rehired them. Others have preemptively removed workers from schedules without pay or have fired workers in fear of becoming targets of immigration enforcement.<\/p>\n

Many Haitians who have been in the country for more than a decade are bracing for a rush of arrests and deportations by the Trump administration.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is really terrible,\u201d said Erik Crew, an attorney at Haitian Bridge Alliance in Brooklyn. DHS \u201cis now actively publishing false information.\u201d<\/p>\n
