Venezuela TPS Ends Soon: 2023 Designation Wraps Up in April
Published Date: 2/5/2025
Notice
Summary
The U.S. government has decided to end the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Venezuelans granted under the 2023 designation, effective April 7, 2025. This means Venezuelan nationals covered by the 2023 TPS will no longer be allowed to stay temporarily in the U.S. after that date. However, the earlier 2021 TPS designation for Venezuela stays active until September 10, 2025, so some Venezuelans still have protection for a bit longer.
