US EditionDHS ending deportation protections for South Sudanese nationals
The Department of Homeland Security ends TPS after 14 years, affecting about 5,000 South Sudanese nationals who must leave or face deportation starting January 2026.
- The Department of Homeland Security ended Temporary Protected Status for South Sudanese nationals, a decision by Kristi Noem, DHS Secretary, after consultations with the State Department.
- Citing security improvements, the department argued continuation would be contrary to U.S. interests, with DHS saying end of conflict and reintegration efforts justify ending TPS despite United Nations warnings of ongoing abuses.
- Over the past 14 years, TPS has shielded South Sudanese displaced by conflict, with DHS estimating roughly 5,000 nationals in the United States, about 232 approved individuals, and 73 applications pending.
- A Federal Register notice will trigger a 60-day grace period for departures, DHS encourages voluntary exits via the CBP Home mobile app, which offers a complimentary plane ticket and a $1,000 exit bonus.
- The termination positions U.S. policy against a backdrop of ongoing humanitarian need as nearly 9 million people in South Sudan require assistance and 7.7 million face acute food insecurity, while U.N. officials warned the ceasefire is failing.
