"We hope the South Sudan Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation will engage with the U.S. government to find a solution to prevent the deportation of our South Sudanese citizens who are contributing in various ways in the USA." - CDR Director

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said on Wednesday it will terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for South Sudan, revoking the humanitarian protection that has allowed thousands of its nationals to live and work in the United States since the country’s descent into civil war.

The decision, published in a Federal Register notice, means that an estimated 232 South Sudanese beneficiaries will lose their legal status on Jan. 5, 2026. They will have a 60-day grace period, from Nov. 6 until the expiration date, to depart the United States or face potential deportation.
