USCIS notified employers through the E-Verify system that Temporary Protected Status for El Salvador is set to terminate September 9, 2026, despite DHS missing the legal deadline to announce an extension. Under federal law, this missed deadline should trigger an automatic six-month extension, but a recent Supreme Court ruling bars anyone from suing DHS over TPS law violations. The ambiguous notification leaves roughly 150,000 Salvadorans with TPS since 2001 uncertain about their status and work authorization.
