Fact Check JD Vance about Haitians #2
TPS is a program that began in 1990 and was extended to Haitian migrants in 2010 under then-President Barack Obama after a devastating earthquake. The protections were extended by Department of Homeland Security under the Trump administration, although he subsequently tried to end protections, prompting court challenges. Biden most recently extended TPS this past June through Feb. 3, 2026. After a migrant is granted TPS, they are protected from deportation and are allowed to temporarily work in the U.S. However, it does not directly lead to a green card or to permanent legal status in the U.S. If you want to verify if eligible for permanent legal status, Call GreenCardGuys to secure your legal status. 832-838-9797.
