Hundreds of thousands of Haitian nationals living in the United States received a temporary reprieve Friday after the Trump administration extended work authorization tied to Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for an additional two weeks.

As The Gateway Pundit reported last month, the U.S. Supreme Court delivered a major victory for President Trump and American sovereignty on June 25, ruling 6-3 to allow the administration to terminate Temporary Protected Status for approximately 350,000 Haitians and 6,000 Syrians.

The decision lifted previous lower-court blocks and cleared the path to finally end a program that was always supposed to be temporary.

The Biden Regime abused the program for years, repeatedly extending it and allowing hundreds of thousands of Haitians to obtain work permits and put down deep roots in places like South Florida’s Little Haiti and surrounding communities. What started after the 2010 earthquake became a permanent resettlement program under Democrat administrations.

Former Secretary Kristi Noem correctly determined that conditions in Haiti no longer justify the special designation. The Trump Administration moved to end it. Activist judges tried to block it at the last minute. The Supreme Court slapped that nonsense down.

On Friday, the Trump administration has extended work authorization and protections for Haitian TPS recipients for an additional two weeks, pushing the deadline from July 10 to July 24 while ongoing litigation continues.

According to USCIS:

This guidance supersedes the SAVE Termination of TPS for Haiti message posted on July 1, 2026.

The TPS designation of Haiti and related benefits was set to terminate on Feb. 3, 2026. However, on Feb. 2, 2026, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued an order staying the TPS Haiti termination. Miot et al. v. Trump et al., No. 25-cv-02471-ACR (D.D.C.).

TPS Haiti beneficiaries will keep their status and employment authorization, and their documentation will remain valid per the above court order. Forms I-766, Employment Authorization Documents, (EADs) with category A12 or C19 remain valid and are extended. The extension is limited relief until the lower courts align with the U.S. Supreme Court’s favorable decision in Mullin v. Doe, 609 U.S. ____ (2026), issued on June 25, 2026. Refer to the EAD Extension dropdown on the TPS Haiti webpage for EAD expiration dates that are extended pending the resolution of the litigation.

SAVE will verify if an alien has received an approval for TPS that has not been withdrawn using information from any TPS-related document, such as a Form I-797, Approval Notice, or Form I-797C, Notice of Action. TPS beneficiaries will receive a SAVE manual response of:

• “Temporary Protected Status – Employment Authorized – Temp Emp Auth”;
• The employment authorized through date will be the Employment Authorization Document (EAD) expiration date of “July 24, 2026“; and
• DHS Comments “TPS and employment authorization are extended per court order. Please check the USCIS TPS Haiti webpage regularly for updates.”
