Advocacy
Processing Backlogs for Temporary Protected Status
December 19, 2022Advancing Justice | AAJC joins organizations in writing to urge the implementation of policies to urgently alleviate the processing backlog for TPS applicants.
We, the undersigned organizations serving and advocating for Temporary Protected Status (TPS) holders, write to urge you to implement policies to urgently alleviate the processing backlog for TPS applicants. Any delay in adjudication eats into an already short grant period, leaving applicants at risk of deportation and without permission to work, even while qualifying for those benefits.
