Extension of Honduras for Temporary Protected Status; Correction

AGENCY:

Citizenship and Immigration Services, Department of Homeland Security.

ACTION:

Notice of correction.

SUMMARY:

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is correcting a notice that was published in the Federal Register on November 3, 2004 at 69 FR 64084 which announced the extension of the designation of Honduras for Temporary Protected Status (TPS). In the supplemental information to the notice, USCIS inadvertently misstated that only Form I-821 with Revision Date 7/30/04 will be accepted. However, the Form I-821 Instructions were revised on November 5, 2004 and are now consistent with the filing instructions in the aforementioned Federal Register notice. Therefore, USCIS is notifying affected nationals of Honduras (or aliens with no nationality who last habitually resided in Honduras) that Form I-821 with Revision Date 11/05/04 will be accepted until further notice, and Form I-821 with Revision Date 7/30/04 will be accepted through January 3, 2005. All applicants are required to follow the same filing requirements as listed in the notice at 69 FR 64084 regardless of the version of the Form I-821 submitted.

DATES:

This correction is effective November 17, 2004.
