DHS today posted a Federal Register notice announcing the termination of South Sudan’s designation for Temporary Protected Status. The termination will be effective Jan. 5, 2026.
At least 60 days before a TPS designation expires, the secretary of homeland security, after consultation with appropriate U.S. government agencies, must review the conditions in a country designated for TPS to determine whether the conditions supporting the designation continue to be met and, if so, how long to extend the designation.
After conferring with interagency partners, Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem determined that conditions in South Sudan no longer meet the TPS statutory requirements. The secretary’s decision was based on a USCIS review of the conditions in South Sudan and in consultation with the Department of State.
South Sudanese nationals leaving the United States should use the U.S. Customs and Border Protection CBP Home Mobile App to report their departure from the United States and take advantage of a safe, secure way to self-deport that includes a complimentary plane ticket, a $1,000 exit bonus, and potential future opportunities for legal immigration.
