AGENCY:

ACTION:

Notice; correction.

SUMMARY:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), is making a correction to the notice titled “Continuation of Documentation for Beneficiaries of Temporary Protected Status Designations for El Salvador, Haiti, Nicaragua, Sudan, Honduras, and Nepal” that published in the Federal Register on September 10, 2021, at 86 FR 50725. USCIS is correcting an omission in the Additional Notes section of the notice to clarify that the previously announced determination to terminate the 2011 designation of TPS for Haiti will not be implemented or enforced unless and until the district court's orders in Saget, et al., v. Trump, et al., No. 18-cv-1599 (E.D.N.Y. Apr. 11, 2019) (“ Saget” ) and Ramos, et al. v. Nielsen, et al., No. 18-cv-01554 (N.D. Cal. Oct. 3, 2018) (“ Ramos” ) are reversed and the reversal becomes final.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On September 10, 2021, DHS published a notice in the Federal Register at 86 FR 50725. USCIS is making a correction to that published notice. The correction is as follows:

USCIS is correcting the second sentence in the third paragraph in the Additional Notes section of the published notice. USCIS is correcting the sentence to state that the determination to terminate the 2011 designation of TPS for Haiti will not be implemented or enforced unless and until the district court's orders in Saget and Ramos are reversed and the reversal becomes final, rather than that the termination will not be implemented and enforced unless and until the district court's order in only Saget is reversed and the reversal becomes final. USCIS is making this correction because the termination is enjoined in Ramos as well as in Saget.

Correction

In FR 2021-19617, on page 50729 in the Federal Register of September 10, 2021, in the second column, USCIS is correcting the sentence as follows:

The previously announced determination to terminate the 2011 designation of TPS for Haiti will not be implemented or enforced unless and until the district courts' orders in Saget and Ramos are reversed and the reversal becomes final.
